Plastic Industry
Plastic is a group of synthetic or semi-synthetic materials obtained from the polymerization process. Plastics are typically organic polymers of high molecular mass. Plastic is a synthetic material and is not found nature. Plastics can be made into various shapes under thermal and mechanical process. The tiles used in the plastics industry are fine and somewhat white and contain a small amount of iron. About 2.9% of consumed talc in plastic industry worldwide is used as filler. In the plastic industry talc is used as filler due to its shape, size, thermal resistance and ductility. Also, talc is added to plastic to increase mechanical strength and improve the surface quality (reduce abrasion). In cars, special plastics entitled engineering thermoplastics (ETP) are used
