Talc is the world's softest mineral. Although all talc ores are soft, platy, water repellent and chemically inert, no two talcs are quite the same. Talc is a vital part of everyday life. The magazines we read, the polymers in our cars and houses, the paints we use and the tiles we walk on are just some of the products that talc enhances.

Apr 12, 2013The mineral talc has a predominantly plate-like structure, with adjacent layers very weakly bonded by Van der Waals forces. 21 This allows talc to be easily sheared along the plane, giving it its natural slippery feel as well as its softness. Talc is the softest mineral, with a hardness of 1 Mohs (scale of 1 to 10). in cosmetics. 12

Due to the lamellar habit of the mineral talc, after comminution, the resulting particles normally have the flaky or disc-like morphology. The mathematical model adopted to represent the plate-like or disc-like talc particles was of an oblate spheroid (Figure 4.2). An oblate spheroid ("flattened sphere") is a surface of revolution obtained

The mineral talc is a hydrous magnesium silicate. A massive talcose rock is called steatite, and an impure massive variety is known as soapstone. Talc is used commercially because of its fragrance retention, luster, purity, softness, and whiteness. Other commercially important properties of talc are its chemical inertness, high dielectric strength, high thermal

Talc can become contaminated with these fibers during the mining process because asbestos (also a naturally-occurring mineral) is found in nature in close proximity to talc. This is why the selection of talc mining sites is so important, as is screening all talc batches for the presence of asbestos fibers.

Talc is a hydrated magnesium silicate. There are many types of talc and each ore body has its own features, its own geology, formed many millions of years ago. As a natural ore, talc is always found in combination with at least one other mineral. The most common of these is chlorite, a chemically and structurally similar ore.

What is Mohs Hardness Scale? One of the most important tests for identifying mineral specimens is the Mohs Hardness Test. This test compares the resistance of a mineral to being scratched by ten reference minerals known as the Mohs Hardness Scale (see table at left). The test is useful because most specimens of a given mineral are very close to the same hardness.
