Read the buyer guideTalc can function as an extender and functional filler. Decorative paints and industrial protective coatings need different balances of appearance, flow and film performance.
Read the buyer guideTalc is a magnesium-silicate ingredient in selected ceramic bodies and glazes. Its value depends on the complete formulation and firing schedule.
Read the buyer guideStart by identifying the role: functional filler, coating ingredient, or pitch and stickies control. These uses require different material characteristics.
Read the buyer guideTalc may be used inside an elastomer compound or as a dusting/parting material. Define the role before choosing the powder.
