Abstract
The present invention relates to the use of surface modified calcium carbonate as a filler in adhesives, sealants, and/or caulks, wherein the surface modified calcium carbonate is a mineral pigment product formed in situ by the double and/or multiple reaction between a calcium carbonate and the reaction product or products of the said carbonate with gaseous CO2 formed in situ and/or coming from an external supply, and the reaction product or products of the said carbonate with one or more moderately strong to strong H3O+ ion donors, and at least one aluminum silicate and/or at least one synthetic silica and/or at least one calcium silicate and/or at least one silicate of a monovalent salt and/or at least one aluminum hydroxide and/or at least one sodium and/or potassium aluminate. It further relates to method of producing adhesives, sealants, and/or caulks comprising surface modified calcium carbonate, as well as to the adhesives, sealants, and/or caulks obtained by this process.
