tr 52 titanium dioxide manufacturer

Titanium dioxide (TiO2). Titanium dioxide is the most common white pigment used today. As a pigment, titanium dioxide is unique because it combines both high colouring and high opacifying capacity. This is mainly due to its high refractive index (2.7). Furthermore, titanium dioxide is an excellent UV absorber (it is used in sun protective creams). Some typical properties are: density 3.3-4.25 g/cm3; pH of water suspension 3.5-10.5; particle size 8–300 nm; oil absorption 10–45 g/100 g; specific surface area 7–160 m2/g. Most titanium dioxide is produced from the rutile (TiO2) or ilmenite (titanate of ferrous iron). Titanium dioxide can be obtained using different processes.

B301 lithopone is distinguished by its exceptional brightness and tinting strength, making it ideal for applications requiring a crisp, clean hue. On the other hand, B311 offers a subtle difference in terms of shade and opacity, catering to those who prefer a slightly softer yet still highly effective pigment. The nuances between these two grades may seem minor, but they significantly impact the end result, underscoring the importance of precise lithopone selection based on the intended use.
