titanium dioxide manufacture

In the world of printing, the quality of ink is paramount. It not only affects the aesthetic appeal of the final product but also its durability and resistance to environmental factors. One key component that significantly influences the grade of printing ink is the use of rutile titanium dioxide, particularly the R-906 grade. This specialized pigment offers a range of benefits that make it an essential ingredient for manufacturers seeking to elevate their ink formulations.

The refractive index of rutile TiO2 is among the highest known, which results in unparalleled hiding power in paints and coatings. Its ability to reflect light across a broad spectrum enhances the brightness and opacity of products, thereby reducing the amount of pigment required to achieve the desired effect. Consequently, rutile is frequently chosen over other types of TiO2 in industrial applications where high performance and cost efficiency are paramount.

3) Metathesis reaction: Dissolve the sulfide in distilled water to obtain a clear decomposition liquid, and add nonionic surfactant to stir evenly, then slowly add it to the zinc sulfate ammonia complex solution to form a metathesis reaction, and obtain Lide powder opacity. The liquid is separated by filtration, and the separated ammonia liquid is returned to the leaching after ammonia adjustment, and the separated nZnS-BaS0 4 crystal filter cake is put into the next step;

Lithopone’s historical significance is further accentuated by the advancements and modifications that followed its inception. The 1874 patent by J.B. Orr, for instance, ushered in a new white pigment—Orr’s Zinc White. This innovation was attained by co-precipitating zinc sulfate and barium sulfide, followed by a calcination process. Further refinements marked the subsequent decades, the most notable being the enhancement of lightfastness achieved in the 1920s by introducing small amounts of cobalt salts before calcination.
