titanium dioxide in plastics factories

On the other hand, the chloride process involves heating the ore with chlorine gas to produce titanium tetrachloride. This intermediate compound is then refined further and reacted with oxygen at high temperatures to yield titanium dioxide This intermediate compound is then refined further and reacted with oxygen at high temperatures to yield titanium dioxide This intermediate compound is then refined further and reacted with oxygen at high temperatures to yield titanium dioxide This intermediate compound is then refined further and reacted with oxygen at high temperatures to yield titanium dioxidetitanium dioxide is prepared from factory. The chloride process generally results in a higher purity product and is more energy-efficient, but it requires sophisticated equipment and handling due to the corrosive nature of chlorine gas.

Lithopone, a white pigment composed of a mixture of zinc sulfide and barium sulfate, has become an indispensable ingredient in the paint industry. Its unique properties, including excellent opacity, high brightness, and resistance to weathering, make it highly valued among paint manufacturers. As the demand for sustainable and efficient paint products grows, the role of lithopone and its suppliers has become more critical than ever.

Lithopone B301, Lithopone B311 powder, brilliant white pigment used in paints, inks, leather, paper, linoleum, and face powder. It was developed in the 1870s as a substitute or supplement for lead carbonate (white lead), to overcome its drawbacks of toxicity, poor weathering, and darkening in atmospheres that contain sulfur compounds. Lithopone B301, Lithopone B311 powder is an insoluble mixture of barium sulfate and zinc sulfide that precipitates upon mixing solutions of barium sulfide and zinc sulfate. The precipitate is recovered by filtration, then calcined (roasted) at temperatures above 600° C (1,112° F). Although Lithopone B301, Lithopone B311 powder has been replaced in many applications by titanium dioxide, it is still widely used in a number of products, such as water paints.
