- Grade TC-100 is used in joint compound formulas to improve resistance to cracking, smoothing and sandability. Grade TC-100 also is used as a filler in modified asphalt roofing to improve weathering and UV resistance.
- Grade TC-100 is also used as a dusting agent for rubber and rolled asphalt, an agricultural chemical carrier and for refractory gunning compounds.
- Grade TC-100 could also be used in plastics as a cost-effective reinforcing agent to improve stiffness, HDT and dimensional stability.
