color of tio2 factory

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.
