Industrial Applications :

Paper: Gives smoothness, brightness to paper & partially replaces TIO2. Also acts as pitch absorber.
Paints: Highly recommended for wood finishes, primers, putties, under coateds, architectural finishes, water based coatings. Its laminar structure helps in better corrosion protection and also improves exterior durability of paints. Recommended for epoxy and exterior paints.
Ceramics: Talc improves resistance to thermal shocks and gives superior electrical properties. It gives greater toughness to speak plugs and switch boards. It also improves dry pressing resistance of ceramic bodies.
Foundaries : Used in mould making an for final finish.
Plastic & Rubber : Used in variety of application as filler.
Cosmetics: Super fine talc powder is used in cosmetic for its smooth silky finish.
