- Nicron® 604 is high purity microcrystalline talc. The lamellar nature of Nicron® 604 enhances film strength and flexibility, and provides barrier properties in architectural and industrial primers and topcoats to improve corrosion resistance and stain-blocking ability. Nicron® 604 is also used in paints to improve sag resistance and maximize prime pigment extension.
