Ceramics And Engineered Stones
Talc can be used in the manufacturing of ceramic products such as bathroom fixtures, ceramic tiles, pottery and dinnerware. When used as a filler in ceramics, talc can improve the firing characteristics of the greenware and the strength of the finished product. Being used as a flux agent for glaze with low iron content, reduces the melting point of ceramic glazes and improves their vitrifications. When used as a flux agent for ceramic by reducing the process temperature and the firing time, talc reduces the processing costs.
