- Applications
Crys-Talc® 2H also improves exterior durability and barrier properties in architectural primers, topcoats, traffic paints, texture paints, and composite compounds. Crys-Talc® 2H is suitable for use in adhesives, sealants, caulks, joint compounds, auto body patch and putties, when higher brightness is needed.. Crys-Talc® 2H can be used as a flux for high alumina ceramics and sanitary ware. Crys-Talc® 2H is an excellent fluxing and processing additive for brick, clay pipe, roofing and floor tile manufacture, and low iron content makes it the appropriate choice for better firing color performance.
