Talc Applications
In conclusion, Talc Powder of Avani Group of Industries has the following natural characteristics which are of key importance:
- Opacity – It is a great opacifier and hence it hides the underlying surface from the exterior environment.
- Brightness/Whiteness – It has various ranges of brightness which are suitable for different processes.
- Softness – It is the softest mineral and hence can be easily pulverised to minute particle sizes.
- Lightness – Due to having very low density, it provides a relatively high coverage even for small weighted amount of material.
- Inertness – It is generally unreactive in chemical or physical .
- Lamellarity – Platy and layered structure of Talc particles leads to formation of an even layer of coating.
- Hydrophobicity – It is a water repellant and hence Talc coated material also becomes water repellant.
- Organophilic – It has a strong affinity for organic compounds and hence binds extremely well with resins.
