In costmetics, talc has the following functions: abrasive, absorbent anticaking, bulking, opacifying, skin protection, and slip modification. It has been used widely at concentrations up to 100% in cosmetics, even as baby powder. Medically, talc is used as a sclerosing agent, being administered intrapleurally via chest-tube to decrease the recurrence of malignant pleural effusions in symptomatic patients.
Talc is also used as a color additive in drugs. Talc is used as a dusting powder for medicinal and toilet preparations. Additionally, it functions as a pigment in paints, varnishes, and rubber, a filler for paper, rubber and soap, a lubricant for molds and machinery, and a carrier for insecticides and herbicides.
