Pulmonary talcosis in the setting of cosmetic talcum powder use
Pulmonary talcosis is a rare pneumoconiosis that is difficult to diagnose and may progress to debilitating lung disease. Four types of talcosis are described in literature: talc-silicosis and talc-asbestosis secondary to inhalation in industry workers ...

Improvement of barrier properties of a hybrid sol-gel coating by incorporation of synthetic talc-like phyllosilicates for corrosion protection of a carbon steel [PDF]
Sol–gel coatings for corrosion protection of metals are a good alternative to toxic chromate treatments. The present work focussed on the incorporation of inorganic fillers in a sol–gel coating to improve the barrier properties of the film.

Melt crystallization of PLA/Talc in fused filament fabrication
The fused filament fabrication (FFF) process is characterized by fast local temperature decrease. Such characteristic usually leads to lower crystallinity degree in final printed parts when semi-crystalline polymers are used.
