Rutile titanium dioxide pigment TR-216
Application Industries
1. Paints and Inks Industry
Because of its extremely high hiding power and good weather resistance, the TR-216 rutile titanium dioxide is an essential paint component and is widely used in top quality paints and inks. Its unusually high refractive index and excellent optical properties make it the obvious choice for demanding applications such as inside / outside paints, architectural paints, automotive paints, industrial protection paints and printing inks.
2. Plastics and Rubber Industry
With the advanced surface treatment technology,TR-216 possesses superior dispersibility and compatibility in plastic and rubber system , can make the product whiteness, weather resistance and mechanical strength have marked improvement. It can be used for demanding applications including engineering plastics, outdoor building materials, automotive parts and rubber items.
3. Paper Industry
TR-216 is the quality filler and coating pigment in paper industry. The chemical stability and good dispersibility which guarantee the excellent and uniform performance in wide processing in paper, especially for the production of high quality cultural paper, packaging paper and specialty paper. It is best choice for paper manufacturers that want to improve the visual as well as performance enhancements of their paper offerings.
