Exposure to cosmetic talc and mesothelioma
Aim Mesothelioma is associated with asbestos exposure. In this case series, we present 166 cases of individuals who had substantial asbestos exposure to cosmetic talc products as well as some who had potential or documented additional exposures to other ...

Synthetic Talc and Talc‐Like Structures: Preparation, Features and Applications [PDF]
AbstractThis contribution gives a comprehensive review about the progress in preparation methods, properties and applications of the different synthetic talc types: i) crystalline nanotalc synthesized by hydrothermal treatment; ii) amorphous and/or short‐range order nanotalc obtained by precipitation, and iii) organic–inorganic hybrid talc‐like ...

W-TALC: Weakly-supervised Temporal Activity Localization and Classification [PDF]
Most activity localization methods in the literature suffer from the burden of frame-wise annotation requirement. Learning from weak labels may be a potential solution towards reducing such manual labeling effort.

Effects of talc, kaolin and calcium carbonate as fillers in biopolymer packaging materials
We compared the performance of bio-based and biodegradable polymers for packaging applications. Cost-effective inorganic fillers (talc, kaolin and calcium carbonate) were first melt-compounded with polylactic acid (PLA), poly(butylene adipate-co ...

Two-dimensional talc as a van der Waals material for solid lubrication at the nanoscale
Talc is a van der Waals and naturally abundant mineral with the chemical formula Mg3Si4O10(OH)2. Two-dimensional (2D) talc could be an alternative to hBN as van der Waals dielectric in 2D heterostructures.
