Application of rutile titanium dioxide in coating industry

Rutile titanium dioxide has high refractive index and strong achromatic power. It has outstanding advantages in both hiding power and dispersibility.

Different coatings have different decorative and protective effects on the surface of objects.

However, both decorative and protective coatings have high requirements for the hiding power of titanium dioxide. Basically, it can be said that the hiding power of titanium dioxide determines the hiding power of the coating.

What specific industries will use the coating with titanium dioxide?

· Decorative coating

Home decoration paint, basically every color of paint will need to add titanium dioxide to make the paint whiter and more hiding power. Another more common is car paint. We see different colors of cars; even black paint will be added to titanium dioxide for better coverage.

· Architectural coatings

Office buildings, residential buildings and other exterior wall coatings need good UV protection and good covering, and titanium dioxide needs to be added.

In addition, rutile titanium dioxide with strong hiding power is added to the markings and zebra crossings we see on the road every day.

· White pigment

The white pigment most used by art students undoubtedly adds a lot of titanium dioxide raw materials. Other art coatings also contain titanium dioxide in different proportions.

· Pattern coating

The pattern coatings on the market are inseparable from titanium dioxide in terms of color ratio and pattern. For example, diatom mud, artificial stone, human floor tile, etc.

· Multifunctional coating

Titanium dioxide is used in the production of many high-temperature resistant coatings. Here, more performance is applied, which is the high-temperature resistance of titanium dioxide.
