Talc Powder For Paint Industry

Features:

• Wet scrub resistance: Our talc grades improve the wet scrub resistance of decorative paints, in contrast to talc containing chlorite (Mg-Al-Silicate), which is not hydrophobic.
• Mud Cracking Resistance:Our talc’s platy particles act as bridges between binder agglomerates and strengthen the paint film. The higher the aspect ratio and particle size of the talc, the better the mud cracking resistance.
• Matting: Our Talc gives a silky look to paints. Coarse, lamellar talc particles are very efficient matting agents in high PVC paints. Our fine talc with high surface area can be used to absorb excess binder and give a flattening effect to paints or coatings below critical PVC.
• Opacity: Lamellar structure (high aspect ratio) of our grades help to disperse TiO2 to improve hiding power and reduce formulation costs.
• Barrier Effect: The talc platelets reduce oxygen or water transmission, and protect the binder from UV radiation, thus improving the weather resistance of outdoor paints.
• Anti-corrosive: The same barrier effect reduces migration of corrosive agents through steel protective coatings. At the same time, the hydrophobic talc increases the adhesion of the coating film on the steel substrate, while the platelets improve the mechanical strength of the film.
• High Solids: Our double classified, de-dusted talc with low surface area (low oil absorption) allow a higher filler loading in high solids coatings, resulting in lower VOC emission, lower formulation cost and improved performance at the same time.

Usage:
Use of talc reduces the use of the primary pigment that goes into paint production, bringing down the manufacturing costs. It reinforces the paint film and improves the durability and stain resistance of paint. Due to its rust inhibitive properties & corrosion resistance, the finish lasts longer
