Silverline 403

Chemical Name
Talc
Chemical Family
Silicates

Silverline 403 is an off-white, high-purity, platy, fine talc. It enhances film strength and flexibility, provides barrier properties in architectural and industrial primers, and improves corrosion resistance and stain-blocking ability. Silverline 403 is used in paints to improve low-shear viscosity and maximize prime pigment extension.
