china lithopone powder pricelist

Should a grade of lithopone be desired higher than the standard grade and another by-productas, for example, a forty-five*per= cent. grade of lithopone and barium chlorid the following process may be pi'acticed,\vhich, however, is quite analogous to the one already 10o described. Aqueous solutions of the ingredients are prepared as before, in these proportions: zinc sulfate, one hundred and sixty-one pounds; zinc chlorid, one hundred and thirty-six pounds, and barium sulfid, three hundred and thirty-eight pounds. Upon mixing these several solutions the lithopone will at once be precipitated in accordance with the following reaction:

The major restraint to the global Lithopone market is the availability of numerous white pigment substitutes. It can be replaced by other inorganic white pigments such as Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) and Sachtolith. Among these substitutes, the introduction of TiO2 has reduced the commercial importance of Lithopone white pigment. Compared to other white pigments, TiO2 has high brightness and refractive index, which results in lower pigment loading.

The surge in demand for interior and exterior paints and use of plastic across various end-use industries drive the global Lithopone market. Lithopone white pigment is used in paints and coating systems that find applications in residential and industrial landscapes. Hence, as the construction & building sector flourishes, the demand for building and architectural materials such as paints and coatings will increase. This trend is conducive for the Lithopone market growth. In addition, white plastic materials are increasingly being used in consumer products. Developments in plastic forming technology is anticipated to indirectly boost plastic production, thus, increasing the demand for white pigments during the forecast period.
