Research project on the lubrication factor of chalk.

Title of a research project I am doing. I plan on having it in different languages all over my poster board. That is why I asked this same question in a different language previously. Thank you and sorry for the repetitive questions!

* the chalk I mean is the chalk used for sports such as gymnastics.

Explanation:
Indeed, JSzacki is right that chalk, in sport, in Poland, is called magnezja. On the other hand magnezja does not prevent "poślizg" - au contraire, it prevents "poślizg". To be on save side I would describe further to include that it concerns sport.
