TINOX R-2240 Rutile Titanium Dioxide
TINOX® R-2240 is a high-performance rutile pigment specifically designed for use in plastics. It is produced using the sulphate process and undergoes both inorganic and organic post-treatments. This combination of treatments ensures that TINOX® R-2240 offers outstanding performance in plastics applications, with strong opacity, low oil absorption, and excellent dispersibility.
Key Features and Performance
- Strong Opacity and Hiding Power: TINOX® R-2240 provides exceptional opacity and hiding power, ensuring superior coverage and color consistency in plastic applications. This makes it ideal for applications where high-quality visual appearance is crucial.
- Good Dispersibility: The pigment has excellent dispersibility in plastics, which means it can be easily and evenly distributed within the plastic matrix. This reduces the risk of agglomeration and improves overall product quality, making it suitable for a wide range of processing techniques.
- Low Oil Absorption: With low oil absorption properties, TINOX® R-2240 ensures that the pigment does not absorb excessive amounts of plasticizers or oils. This helps maintain the plastic's mechanical properties and reduces the risk of surface defects.
- Strong Powder Followability: TINOX® R-2240 has strong powder followability, which means it can adhere well to the plastic particles during the compounding process. This ensures a more uniform distribution and better overall performance in the final product.
- Good Processability: The pigment is designed to be easily processed in various plastic applications, ensuring smooth production and reduced downtime. This makes it a reliable choice for manufacturers looking to maintain high production efficiency.
