General Description
Talc is a naturally occurring hydrated magnesium silicate mineral widely used as a functional filler and performance additive across plastics, paints and coatings, rubber, ceramics, personal care, pharmaceuticals, and industrial applications. It is valued for its softness, lamellar particle structure, chemical inertness, and excellent lubricating properties.
Talc improves surface smoothness, enhances dispersion, provides slip and anti blocking properties, and contributes to dimensional stability in finished products. Its low abrasiveness and thermal stability make it suitable for both industrial and sensitive formulations.
