- Chemical Name
- Titanium dioxide
- Chemical Family
- Titanium Compounds
Ti-Pure™ R-105 is a rutile titanium dioxide pigment manufactured by the chloride process that produces bright TiO2. Rutile titanium dioxide is a fine, dry powder that is most widely used as a white pigment. This product is specially designed for outdoor plastic applications, combining a neutral undertone with moderate opacity strength for easy color formulation work. The silica encapsulation technology minimizes the interaction of the TiO2 surface with other materials within the plastic matrix. This product is also treated with an organic-based material to provide excellent bulk flow and processing while minimizing the hygroscopic nature of inorganically coated TiO2.

- Application
Ti-Pure™ R-105 is recommended for outdoor plastics, especially PVC window profile applications. Ti-Pure™ R-105 utilizes silica encapsulation technology to minimize interaction of the TiO2 surface with the surrounding environment. This minimizes "chalking," crazing, and other surface deterioration frequently seen in outdoor applications. Ti-Pure™ R-105 surface treatment also is optimized for dry flow conveyability and dispersion within plastics.
