Precipitated CaCO. is produced in a number of chemical processes. Somclimcs it is economical In dry and calcine the byproduct to regenerate CaO or Cat OH) . Some precipitated CaCOt is made to specific particle size and shape, whiteness, and purity for use as functional filler for paper coatings, paint, and polymers. These products command a premium price as compared with pulverized limestone fillers. 

Ground dolomite (calcium magnesium carbonate) and limestone fillers are also used.

Occasionally, it is difficult to pyrolyze completely or oxidize other components in the polymer matrix without decomposing the less stable metal carbonates. In order to prevent the overlapping of these reactions. Cassel and Gray (100) carried out the pyrolysis in an atmosphere of C02 to which a small amount of oxygen was added. The CO, atmosphere will suppress the metal carbonate decomposition to over 850°C. This procedure was illustrated by the decomposition of a limestone filler. In air, the peak temperatures of the DTG curve occurred at 475 and 750CC in a C02-N 2 atmosphere.

Determination of the calcium carbonate content of limestone filler aggregate for bituminous mixtures is conducted in accordance with CEN EN 196-2 (2013). 

Cement, lime, limestone filler and filler from other rocks, such as a mixture of diabase and dolomite, as well as sulfur filler, were used in the past (Fiber and Pichler 1993). A substantial effect on the permanent deformation behaviour was seen only with the use of sulfur (Denning and Carswell 1981b Fromm and Kennepohl 1979).

An example of HPC mixture proportions, specially proposed for pavements, is shown in Table 12.2. The application of limestone filler allows the reduction of cement content in comparison to concrete B proposed in Table 12.1 for the same strength.
