Microtalc is a hydrated magnesium silicate with the chemical formula Mg3Si4O10(OH)2. Talc performs a number of functions in food products. Our talc mineral in food is inert and passes through the body without being digested. It is approved as a carrier for the food industry and serves as an excellent process aid as anti-caking. Upon request the food grades can be heat treated.

The talc grade needed for a production depends on the end formulation and the desired achieved results. We advise you to contact our sales team for a personal product recommendation. This talc grade is mostly used to be dusted onto the surface of gum sticks to prevent them from sticking to each other or to the wrapper
