TALCRON® talc products are produced from an extensive deposit of high quality Montana talc ore. TALCRON talc (Magnesium Silicate) products can be used in a wide variety of industrial applications including; plastics & rubber, paint & coatings and adhesives & sealants. The platy morphology of the talc particles yields a material that improves the stiffness and impact resistance in polymers applications. The chemically inert nature of the talc surface improves the weatherability of talc products. The hydrophobic nature of the talc surface contributes to a reduction in moisture pickup in a number of applications. Additionally, due to the softness of talc, wear on processing equipment is reduced.
