INDUSTRIAL TALC / SOAPSTONE POWDER
Industrial Talc is the softest mineral in the World. Although all talc waxes are soft, platinum, water repellent, and chemically inert, no two talks alike. Yet, talk is an integral part of everyday life. The magazines we read, the polymers in our cars and homes, the paints we use, and the tiles we walk on are just a few of the products that enhance powder.
Talc is a hydrated magnesium sheet silicate with the chemical formula Mg3Si4O10(OH)2. The base layer consists of a magnesium-oxygen/hydroxyl octahedron layer between two layers of silicon-oxygen trigonal. This element’s base or main leaf surface does not contain any hydroxyl groups or active ions, which explains the hydrophobicity and inertness of the powder.
Talc is practically insoluble in water and weak acids and bases. It is not explosive or flammable. Although Talc has very low chemical reactivity, it has an apparent affinity for certain organic chemicals, i.e., organophilic. Above 900°C, Talc gradually loses its hydroxyl group, and above 1050°C, the Talc turns into various forms of enstatite (anhydrous magnesium silicate). The melting point of Talc is 1500 °C.
