Talc is a naturally occurring mineral mined from the earth, composed of magnesium, silicon, oxygen, and hydrogen. It is a soft mineral and a basic silicate of magnesium. Talc is considered a raw material due to properties such as lamellarity, softness, whiteness, fragrance retention, luster, and chemical purity. The other commercial properties of talc are chemical inertness, low abrasion, high thermal conductivity, low electrical conductivity stability, and high oil and grease adsorption. Talc is a versatile mineral used in many industrial applications owing to its unique surface chemistry and lamellar properties. Cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, paints & coatings, ceramics, construction, and pulp & paper are the key industries where talc is used.
