What is Talc / Steatite?

Talc is a naturally occurring hydrated magnesium silicate with the formula Mg₃Si₄O₁₀(OH)₂. It is renowned for being the softest mineral on the Mohs scale (rated 1), giving it a smooth, soapy texture that makes it ideal for a variety of applications. In its dense form, it is known as steatite, which is particularly valued in the ceramics and electrical industries for its mechanical strength and heat resistance.

At Sri Vyshnav Microns, we source and process high-quality talc and steatite to ensure:

• High purity and whiteness.

• Consistent particle size distribution.

• Excellent thermal and chemical stability.

• Superior lamellarity and softness.
