STEASHIELD 40E

STEASHIELD 40E is a high quality talc developed specifically for paint and coating applications. It is finely ground to a median diameter of 7.2 µm making it well suited for formulations requiring smoothness and opacity. Its high whiteness of 94.6 L* and neutral color make STEASHIELD 40E an excellent pigment for providing brightness and hiding power in paints and coatings. As a non-abrasive extender, STEASHIELD 40E has good oil absorption of 33 mL/100g allowing it to be easily dispersed into various resin systems. Its neutral pH, chemical inertness and moisture resistance up to 0.5% helps ensure the long term performance of coatings.
