Product Overview

Magsil® Talc is a high quality, naturally occurring hydrated magnesium silicate used as a versatile functional mineral across a wide range of industries. As a performance additive and extender, it enhances stiffness, dimensional stability, surface finish and cost in use in plastics, rubber, coatings, adhesives and composites.

Available in a variety of particle sizes and grades to suit specific processing and performance requirements, Magsil® Talc supports improved melt behaviour, opacity and reinforcement, while also contributing to lightweighting and improved mechanical performance. Its compatibility with multiple polymer systems and formulation types makes it a dependable choice for formulators seeking consistent quality, reliable supply and material performance optimisation.

Magsil® grades include STAR, DIAMOND, SUPER, ULTRAFINE, PEARL and JADE, all tailored around whiteness, mesh size and end use requirements.

Particle size and grade options

Magsil® Talc is available across a controlled range of particle size distributions to suit different formulation and processing requirements. Grades are offered from fine micronised options at approximately 2 µm (d50) through to coarser reinforcement grades up to approximately 20 µm (d50), with mid range grades commonly used where balanced dispersion and reinforcement are required.

RBH’s Magsil® range is selected based on:

Purity and brightness requirements

Particle size distribution from micronised to standard technical grades

Application demands including rigidity, shrinkage control and surface finish

Price and performance balance
