CIMTALC® 10

CIMTALC® 10 is produced from high purity ore, which provide low iron content, low surface area and excellent color in dry form as well as when incorporated with resins. CIMTALC® 10 is primarily used in performance polypropylene, where improved tensile strength, flexural modulus, heat distortion temperature, increased stiffness, reduced shrinkage, and lower compounding costs are required. CIMTALC® 10 is platy, hydrophobic, non-abrasive and chemically inert.
