The use of titanium dioxide
The chemical properties of titanium dioxide are relatively stable and generally do not react with other substances. They are mainly divided into platy titanium dioxide, anatase titanium dioxide and rutile titanium dioxide. Titanium dioxide is in great demand in the market and is used in various fields. Including: coating, paper, plastic, prevention, ink, medicine and other industries, the following will introduce you in detail.
Titanium dioxide is widely used in coatings, plastics, rubber, ink, paper, chemical fiber, ceramics, daily chemicals, medicine, food and other industries. The paint industry is the largest user of titanium dioxide, especially rutile titanium dioxide, which is mostly consumed by the paint industry. Coatings made of titanium dioxide have bright colors, high covering power, strong tinting power, low dosage, and many varieties, which can protect the stability of the medium, and can enhance the mechanical strength and adhesion of the paint film to prevent cracks. Prevents the penetration of UV rays and moisture and prolongs the life of the paint film.
Titanium dioxide is also an indispensable white pigment in advanced inks. The ink containing titanium dioxide is durable and does not change color, has good surface wettability and is easy to disperse. Titanium dioxide used in the ink industry has both rutile and anatase types.
Titanium dioxide is not only used as a colorant in the rubber industry, but also has the functions of reinforcement, anti-aging and filling. Titanium dioxide is added to white and colored rubber products. Under sunlight, it is resistant to sunlight, does not crack, does not change color, has a large elongation rate and is resistant to acid and alkali. Titanium dioxide for rubber is mainly used for automobile tires, rubber shoes, rubber floors, gloves, sports equipment, etc., generally anatase type. But for the production of automobile tires, a certain amount of rutile products are often added to enhance the anti-ozone and anti-ultraviolet capabilities.
The enamel made of titanium dioxide has strong transparency, small quality, strong impact resistance, good mechanical properties, bright colors, and is not easy to be polluted. Titanium dioxide for food and medicine is titanium dioxide with high purity, low heavy metal content and strong covering power.
