TINOX R-2240: Unleash the Power of Superior Titanium Dioxide
Introduction
TINOX® R-2240 is a premium sulphate process rutile pigment meticulously designed for plastics applications. It boasts an inorganic post-treatment and an organic post-treatment, ensuring exceptional performance across various industries.
Exceptional Performance
Strong Opacity and Hiding Power: TINOX R-2240 provides unparalleled opacity, ensuring that even the thinnest layers of plastic can achieve a perfect white finish, making it ideal for applications where visual appeal is crucial.
Good Dispersibility: This pigment effortlessly disperses in plastics, reducing the risk of agglomeration and ensuring a uniform color distribution throughout the material.
Low Oil Absorption: With an oil absorption level of ≤ 16 g/100g, TINOX R-2240 minimizes the amount of plasticizer or binder needed, resulting in cost savings and improved processability.
Good Processability: TINOX R-2240 is engineered to withstand the rigors of plastics processing, ensuring smooth production and reduced downtime.
