Phosphate-bonded talc shows advantages over block talc, which indicates that it is a superior substitute for this strategically important raw material. A satisfactory product has been made using talc from domestic sources. It has been formed by various methods, such as dry pressing, hydrostatic pressing, or hot pressing. Some factors that control the properties of the end product have been investigated, and the mechanical and dielectric properties are compared with those of natural block talc.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
