TIOXIN™ TiO₂ SA-250
Anatase Titanium Dioxide for Synthetic Fiber Applications
Tioxin™ SA-250 is an excellent quality grade of anatase titanium dioxide pigment made through the use of the sulfate method and intended for synthetic fiber applications. The SA-250 is designed with a superior surface treatment along with excellent particle size control, which gives it excellent optical qualities as well as good performance.
The SA-250 titanium dioxide provides excellent whiteness and opacity, with the added advantage of providing constant delustering. Due to its blue hue, this titanium dioxide will give your fibers an extra sparkle that cannot be ignored. In addition, the particle sizes of this titanium dioxide are precisely designed and give you smooth dispersion in the polymer system.
It has been specially manufactured for easy integration in fibers such as polyester, polyamide, and viscose.
Features and Benefits
Manufactured using advanced processing technology, TIOXIN™ TiO₂ SA-250 offers:
- High degree of whiteness and brightness
- Purity with a clean blue undertone, improving fiber quality
- Outstanding dispersion in polymer systems
- Predictable and controllable delustering effect
- Exceptional lightfastness and weather stability
- Uniform particle size distribution
