TALC ROCK
Talc has the ability to absorb moisture, oils, odor, serve as a lubricant, and produce an astringent effect on human skin. These properties have made talcum powder an important ingredient in many baby powders, foot powders, first aid powders, and a variety of cosmetics.
Uses of Talc
1 Plastics
It is mainly used as a filler. Increase the stiffness of products such as polypropylene, vinyl, polyethylene, nylon, and polyester .It can also increase the heat resistance of these products and reduce shrinkage.
2 Ceramics
In the manufacturing of ceramics products such as bathroom fixtures, ceramic tile, pottery, and dinnerware. Improve the firing characteristics of the green ware and the strength of the finished product.
3 Paint
Talc is used as an extender and filler in paints. The platy shape of talc particles improves the suspension of solids in the can and helps the liquid paint adhere to a wall without sagging.
Talc an excellent filler in paint because it simultaneously serves to whiten and brighten the paint.
4 Paper
Talc as a mineral filler can improve the opacity, brightness, and whiteness of the paper. Talc also can also improve the paper�¯�¿�½?�?�¢??s ability to absorb ink.
5 Cosmetics and Antiperspirants
Talc is used as the powder base of many cosmetic products. The tiny platelets of a talc powder readily adhere to the skin but can be washed off easily.
Talc�¯�¿�½?�?�¢??s softness allows it to be applied and removed without causing skin abrasion.
The ability of talc to absorb moisture, absorb odor, adhere to the skin, serve as a lubricant, and produce an astringent effect in contact with human skin make it an important ingredient in many antiperspirants..
6 Roofing Materials
Talc is added to the asphaltic materials used to make roofing materials to improve their weather resistance. It is also dusted onto the surface of roll roofing and shingles to prevent sticking.
7 Dimension Stone
A rock is known as �¯�¿�½?�?�¢??soapstone�¯�¿�½?�?�¢?? is a massive variety of talc with varying amounts of other minerals such as micas, chlorite, amphiboles, and pyroxenes.
It is a soft rock that is easy to work, and that has caused it to be used in a wide variety of dimension stone and sculpture applications.
8 It is used for countertops, electrical panels, hearthstones, figurines, statuary, and many other projects.
9 Ground talc is used as a lubricant in applications where high temperatures are involved.
10 It is able to survive at temperatures where oil-based lubricants would be destroyed.
11 Talc powder is used as a carrier for insecticides and fungicides.
12 It can easily be blown through a nozzle and readily sticks to the leaves and stems of plants.
13 Its softness reduces wear on application equipment.
CRYSTAL MOUNT CO. FOR MINING & SUPPLYING (limited) provide talc rock in different types with high quality and commitment in delivery.

Bentonite is smectite mineral clay usually montmorillonite. Bentonite presents strong
colloidal properties and its volume increase several times when it absorbs water,
creating gelatinous and viscous fluid.
Special properties of Bentonite include hydration, swelling, water absorption, viscosity,
and thixotropy thus making it suitable for a wide range of applications.
Uses/Applications: Used as a general filler/chemical additive in:
1. Borehole and well-drilling Fluids to lubricate and cool the cutting tools because of their rheological properties.
2. Binder in foundry molds and pellet making.
3. Sealant and groundwater barrier in dam and water pans.
4. Adsorbent in winemaking and pet care items.
5. Pottery and ceramics to aid in plasticity.

SWG is a naturally occuring clay mineral used as a drilling fluid. SWG complies with API
13A section 12. SWG is designed for use in drilling fluids whenever ionic contamination
from materials such as salts, gypsum, seawater, and cement are encountered or anticipated.
Activated Ceramic Bentonite:
Description & Applications
Bentonite binds particles together in ceramic bodies to make them stronger in the green or dry state. Its minute particles fill voids between others to produce a denser mass with
more points of contact.
Adding bentonite to glazes also imparts better.
dry strength and a harder and more durable surface.
To fully appreciate how plastic, hard and strong bentonite
can be, try mixing 25:75 with silica and preparing plastic test bars.
