TIOXIN™ TiO₂ DR-2500
High Gloss Rutile Titanium Dioxide for Industrial & Architectural Coatings
The Tioxin DR-2500 is a pigment-grade titanium dioxide made using the sulfate process and intended for products that require high gloss, opacity, and dispersibility. This titanium dioxide grade incorporates state-of-the-art particle control technology for even particle size, which ensures its consistent functionality in different coatings.
Post-treatment with alumina and selected organic chemicals results in enhanced dispersion properties of Tioxin DR-2500. High gloss generation is accompanied by high opacity and brightness. Low abrasiveness contributes to smooth processing of the material and minimizes machine wear, which makes Tioxin DR-2500 applicable for various industrial uses.
A neutral undertone enables flexible formulation with consistent optical output.
