Titanium Dioxide
Product Description
In PVC (polyvinyl chloride) applications, titanium dioxide (TiO2) is primarily used as a pigment to impart whiteness, brightness, and opacity to the final product.
Applications:
- PVC Pipes and Fittings: TiO2 is used in PVC pipes and fittings to provide whiteness and opacity. It also helps in UV protection, improving the durability of the PVC products.
- PVC Profiles (Windows, Doors): In PVC profiles for windows, doors, and other construction applications, TiO2 is used to enhance the appearance and durability of the profiles.
- PVC Films and Sheets: TiO2 is used in PVC films and sheets to provide whiteness, opacity, and UV protection. This is important for applications where the PVC material is exposed to sunlight.
- PVC Flooring: TiO2 is used in PVC flooring products to enhance their whiteness and opacity. It also helps in improving the durability and wear resistance of the flooring.
- PVC Compounds: TiO2 is added to PVC compounds to achieve the desired color, opacity, and appearance of the final product. It is particularly important in applications where a white or light-colored finish is desired.
