Magnesium silicate has a trade name of Talc. It possesses lubricating properties, high luster and sheen. The colour of the material varies from the pure white to silvery white. It is one of the softest mineral and has a soapy feel.
DoloTalc is a blend of Talc and Dolomite in a rock. At Silver Stone Industries, we have developed multiple grades for Dolo Talc, catering to diverse industry requirements. It is white in color and possess a perfect blend of characteristics of both Talc and Dolomite.
Talc (Soapstone/Steatite) is a naturally occurring mineral primarily composed of magnesium, silicon, and oxygen and also referred to as Magnesium Silicate Powder. It is known for its softness, chemical inertness, and ability to absorb moisture, making it highly useful across various industrial applications. It is available in white powder with the particle size range of 40 to 10 microns.
Talc is an amazingly variable mineral with a massive range of uses across several industries. It is the softest rock on the planet. Softness, water repellency, chemical inertness, platyness, and an affinity for organic compounds are all characteristics of talc
Talc is a highly desired multi-functional filler and process facilitator in a wide range of applications, including plastics, paper, ceramics, and paint.
The physical properties of talc are softness as it ranks 1 on the Mohs scale, natural affinity with oils making it an excellent hydrophobic mineral and its chemical inertness.
It is an extremely useful mineral in the manufacturing of solar panels, semiconductors and electronics, aluminium and steel alloys, and also in the construction sector, after being transformed into silicon (Si) through gaseous reduction at high temperatures.
Aryan Tiles is one of the biggest producers and suppliers for talc in India. We extract our talc mineral from several regions of Rajasthan. Our scientists and process experts collaborate with customers to develop innovative minerals that satisfy their specific industriesâ?? needs.
Talc, or talcum, is a clay mineral, composed of hydrated magnesium silicate with the chemical formula Mgâ??Siâ??Oâ??â??(OH)â??
Talc provide the ideal blend of stiffness and impact strength, allowing producers to create parts that are both thinner and lighter and thus reducing overall vehicle weight within the automation sector. It also improves rubber permeability, lowers tyre rolling resistance and increases vehicle fuel efficiency.
Further in the paints and coatings, talc works as an excellent natural alternative to less environmentally friendly TiO2 for increasing coating mechanical and optical qualities.
Moreover, in the pulp and paper industry, talc is great for preventing deposits, allowing mills to operate in closed water circuits, and maximizing prime resources.
Furthermore, in the ceramic tiles and sanitary ware, talc improves vitrification, allowing manufacturers to lower firing temperatures and shorten firing cycles.
In the agriculture industry, talc-based mineral solution works as natural alternatives to pesticides for preserving fruit from the sun's rays and diseases. They are perfect for organic agriculture. Talcs are also used to make fertilizer flow and anti-caking agents.
Talc has wide range of applications within several industries. And, our production and supply of talc mineral are innovative and of premium quality. We have been able to cater to the specified needs with our years of technical expertise.

Talc Powder
Talc is a hydrous silicate of magnesium and usually contains small quantities of nickel, iron, calcium and aluminum as impurities. Talc (Soap Stone) is the softest mineral known and formed by thermal metamorphism of siliceous dolomite rocks. It is having sheet structure of magnesium sandwiched between two layers of silica and the smooth water repellent surface of each particle slide against one another, resulting in soapy feel and exhibiting pearly luster.
In Rajasthan state of India Talc is available in the region of Udaipur, Bhilwara, Jaipur and Dosa ranging color from white through various shades of Grey to green, red to brown, cream to yellow of impure specimens, translucent to opaque in appearance.

Alternatively known by the names Soapstone, Steatite and French Chalk, Talc is a clayey earthly mineral. After being excavated from the mines, Talc lumps are crushed and pulverised at our manufacturing unit Talc Powder, resulting from this process, is extremely white in colour as well as light in bulk.
This is an important industrial mineral and ensures resistance to heat, electricity and acids, which makes it an ideal surface for electrical switchboards and lab counter tops. Further, the powder ensures longer shelf life, accurate composition and precise pH value.
Talc is a purified hydrated magnesium silicate widely used as a dissolution retardant in the
development of controlled release products. Talc is also used as a lubricant in tablet formulations in a novel powder coating for extended-release pellets and as an adsorbent. Talc is additionally used to clarify liquids and is also used in cosmetics and food products mainly for its lubricant properties.
TALC
Talc is a versatile mineral, widely used in various industrial applications. The nature of deposit, formation of talc is the index of its chemical purity, particle shape and other physical features. Talc possesses some unique and unusual properties, which makes it ideal for its multiple uses. No other mineral other than talc possesses such combination of intrinsic properties.
Mainly there are three types of structures in the talc Platy, Acicular and Granular. Minerals commonly associated with some commercial talc in significant amounts include the Carbonates, Calcite, Dolomite, Magnesite & other Silicates, Anthophyllite, Chlorite, Quartz, Serpentine and Tremolites. Serpentine and Tremolites are hazardous impurities possessing ACICULAR structure.
The deposits located in the north of Rajasthan, are in massive form of the talc, primarily with the Platy particle shape with high chemical purity and reflectance values. They are non-abrasive and free from ASBESTOS and BIMINERALS, especially grits etc.
The important properties of Talc are its chemical inertness, high dielectric strength, high thermal conductivity, low electrical conductivity and Oil & Grease absorption.
