Talc Powder Exporter
Due to talc’s low cost and platy structure, talc powder for the paint industry has gained much prominence since last few years. JP International is known for talc powder exporters, which is particularly used in marine paints and protective coatings.
Below are some of the benefits of using talcum for the paint industry:
- Increases the durability of the paint
- Provides reinforcement to the paint film
- Decrease in the quantity of primary substance that is used
- Helps in controlling the gloss paints
- Helps in suspending other substances
- Provides resistance to corrosion
- Improves rust inhibitive properties
- Improves stability of paints
- Prevents enamel from running off
- Used for better abrasion resistance
- Improves resistance of stains in paints
- Enhances the procedure of smoothening at the time of application
The composition of talc that is used in procedure of making paints is between 2% to 30%. The fineness that is used of talc in paintvaries between 100µ to 20µ. The absorption of oil that is used in the paints is something in between 50 to 60 gram per 100 grams.
Below are some of the points that highlight the role talc plays in making of paints:
- Mud Cracking Resistance: JP International’s talc acts as a bridge between binding and strengthening the paint film. The higher is the particle size of the talc the better will be the mud cracking resistance.
- Matting: With the help of talc, a silky texture is accomplished. Coarse and lamellar talc particles are used for matting the PVC paints. Talc power exporters provide talc with high surface area that can be used for giving a flattening effect to paints.
- High Solids: The de-dusted talc with low surface area is being used as a higher filler which results in lowering the VOC emission, lowering the formulation costs and improvising performance at the same time.
- Barrier Effect: With the help of talc, oxygen and water transmission is reduced and acts as a binder from UV radiation. It thus improves the weather resistance of outdoor paints.
- Wet scrub resistance: The talc improves the web scrub resistance in the decorative paints.
- Anti-corrosive: The barrier effect decreases the migration of corrosive agents through steel protective coatings. In addition to it, the talc enhances the adhesion ofthe coating film on the steel substrate which enhances the mechanical strength of the film.
