Product Description
Titanium Dioxide
Titanium Dioxide is a white colored inorganic compound that is available in purest form with purity of up to 99 percent that makes it highly demanding among our customers. This water soluble chemical has a density of 4.23 grams per cubic centimeters. It is commonly used in a wide range of applications such as manufacturing of pigments, inks, paper, cosmetic products, and many more. The offered Titanium Dioxide can be delivered to our customers in large volumes at a low price.
Superior Pigment for Industrial ApplicationsManufactured for industrial-grade performance, this Titanium Dioxide is favored for its strong tinting strength, outstanding whiteness, and high covering power. Stable under various environmental conditions, it excels in formulations where opacity and durability are essential, such as paints, coatings, plastics, and inks.
Multifaceted Chemical PropertiesWith a specific gravity of 4.0-4.3 and a refractive index of 2.70 (rutile), this TiO2 powder remains non-toxic, insoluble in water, and stable at high temperatures (melting point 1855C). Surface treatment with alumina or silica further enhances its dispersibility and performance.
Practical Packaging and StorageAvailable in 25kg bags or as specified, Titanium Dioxide should be stored in a dry, cool place with containers tightly closed. Its shelf life is 24 months, provided storage conditions are properly maintained, ensuring long-lasting utility for distributors and manufacturers alike.
FAQs of Titanium Dioxide:
Q: How is Titanium Dioxide with rutile or anatase structure used in various industries?
A: Titanium Dioxide serves as a pigment, opacifier, and UV absorber. Its widely incorporated in paints, coatings, plastics, inks, paper, cosmetics, and food products due to its outstanding whiteness, high opacity, and chemical stability.
Q: What are the benefits of using surface-treated Titanium Dioxide in formulations?
A: Surface treatment with alumina or silica enhances the products dispersibility, stability, and compatibility in different media, leading to better suspension, improved application properties, and long-lasting performance in end products.
Q: When should Titanium Dioxide be added during the manufacturing process?
A: The optimal addition point varies by application but is generally introduced during the blending or dispersion phase, ensuring even distribution, maximum tinting strength, and consistent color across the mixture.
Q: What precautions should be followed for storing Titanium Dioxide powder?
A: Store the powder in a dry and cool environment with the container tightly sealed to maintain quality. Avoid exposure to moisture and direct sunlight to preserve its properties and 24-month shelf life.
Q: Where does Titanium Dioxide find application due to its high covering power and brightness?
A: Its exceptional covering power and brightness make it ideal for use in paints, coatings, plastics, paper, inks, cosmetics, and as a food additive, providing vivid colors and effective opacity.
Q: How does the physical form and particle size of Titanium Dioxide influence its performance?
A: As a fine particulate powder with a particle size of 0.2-0.4 m, Titanium Dioxide disperses easily, ensuring uniform coverage, enhanced opacity, and improved color development in final products.
