In toothpaste, precipitated calcium carbonates have the ability to react with monofluorophosphate
salts to inhibit caries. A well-established inverse relationship between calcium and caries exists.
Additionally, calcium carbonate may help neutralize harmful plaque acids, enhance enamel
remineralization, and remove extrinsic stain.

SERVING CUSTOMERS
ACROSS NORTH AMERICA
Kaopolite™ Mica is a naturally occurring muscovite mica offered in a range of particle sizes and
luster effects. It is treated to reduce microbiological content but otherwise is not surface treated
or coated. It can be used where high greater resistance to moisture, heat, light, or chemicals is
needed. Kaopolite Mica offers beneficial rheological properties and, depending on grade, can be
used as a filler and flow agent, or to brighten the tone of colored pigments and to offer decorative
effects.
