Talc reinforcement of polylactide and biodegradable polyester blends via injection‐molding and pilot‐scale film extrusion

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, 2021
As a renewable and biodegradable polymer, polylactide (PLA) has taken a foothold in the packaging industry. However, the thermomechanical and barrier properties of PLA-based films need to be improved to facilitate a wider adoption.

Pulmonary talcosis in the setting of cosmetic talcum powder use

open access: yesRespiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2021
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]

open access: yes, 2012
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.

A Review of the Talc Industry’s Influence on Federal Regulation and Scientific Standards for Asbestos in Talc

open access: yesNew solutions : a journal of environmental and occupational health policy : NS, 2021
The talc industry and Food and Drug Administration (FDA) have asserted that talc has been asbestos-free since 1976 when the industry created a voluntary specification for the asbestos content of cosmetic talc.

Effect of Thoracoscopic Talc Poudrage vs Talc Slurry via Chest Tube on Pleurodesis Failure Rate Among Patients With Malignant Pleural Effusions: A Randomized Clinical Trial.

open access: yesJournal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), 2019
Importance Malignant pleural effusion (MPE) is challenging to manage. Talc pleurodesis is a common and effective treatment. There are no reliable data, however, regarding the optimal method for talc delivery, leading to differences in practice and ...

Properties of 3D Printable Poly(lactic acid)/Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) Blends and Nano Talc Composites

open access: yes, 2020
Biodegradable poly(lactic acid) (PLA) filaments have been widely used in the fused deposition modeling (FDM) 3D printing technology. However, PLA has low toughness and low thermal resistance that affects printability and restricts its industrial ...

An investigation into the tensile properties of recycled high-density polyethylene (rHDPE) blended with talc filler

open access: yesResults in Materials, 2023
High-density polyethylene (HDPE) is a well-established thermoplastic; however, with concerns about the fate of plastics at end-of-life, there is a growing interest in strategies to utilize recycled HDPE (rHDPE) in place of virgin HDPE (vHDPE). This study

Melt crystallization of PLA/Talc in fused filament fabrication

open access: yesMaterials & Design (1980-2015), 2019
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.
