Know More
Titanium Dioxide Pigment R104 TiPure R104 by Chemours is a rutile titanium dioxide pigment manufactured by the chloride process It is specifically designed to give outstanding melt flow with highly loaded thermoplastics masterbatches It combines high tinting strength and blue undertone Offers excellent lacing resistance in hightemperature extrusion coating and cast film applications TiPur R104 has a unique surface treatment that causes it to have minimal effect on the melt flow properties of masterbatches This allows to achieve high loadings in relatively low melt index resins and still have a melt processible material It easily wets with the surface of the thermoplastics and can dramatically increase process rates during preparation of thermoplastic masterbatches in certain types of compounding equipment
High Whiteness and Opacity for Superior CoverageR-104 Titanium Dioxide pigment delivers remarkable whiteness (98%) and opacity, ensuring robust coverage and vibrant colors in formulated products. These properties are essential in paints and coatings, imparting brightness and hiding power even at low dosage levels. The pigment proves invaluable for designers and manufacturers aiming for high-performance end products.
Exceptional Dispersion and Processing EfficiencyWith excellent dispersibility and a residue on sieve of 0.05%, R-104 ensures smooth integration into various matrices, minimizing agglomeration. Its fine particle size and advanced surface treatment with zirconia, alumina, and organics enable effortless mixing and uniform color distribution, increasing manufacturing efficiency.
Versatile Applications Across IndustriesThe properties of R-104 make it suitable for a wide range of uses, including paints, coatings, plastics, rubber, paper, ink, cosmetics, and food. Its non-toxic, odorless, and tasteless nature means it meets stringent safety standards for sensitive applications like cosmetics and food packaging.
