Performance Characteristics

Extremely high dispersibility. BLR-698 pigment exhibits excellent dispersibility in both water-based and solvent-based formulations. Its microparticles undergo a special surface treatment, resulting in a moderate surface energy and excellent compatibility with various resins and solvents. During the production process, it disperses quickly and evenly, preventing agglomeration and ensuring stable and uniform product performance. This characteristic not only improves production efficiency but also reduces the use of dispersants and other additives, thereby lowering production costs.
Excellent hiding power. This product exhibits exceptional hiding power, effectively masking color and imperfections on the coated surface. Its rutile crystal structure imparts a high refractive index, effectively scattering and absorbing light, reducing light transmission through the coating, resulting in excellent hiding power. In coatings, inks, and other applications, this excellent hiding power reduces product usage and improves coating quality and aesthetics.
High gloss. titanium dioxide BLR-698 provides excellent gloss in water-based and solvent-based formulations. Its particles have a regular shape and uniform size distribution. During the coating’s drying and curing process, they form a dense, smooth surface, reflecting light with a mirror-like quality, resulting in a bright, vibrant sheen. BLR 698 excels in applications requiring high gloss, such as interior and exterior architectural coatings and furniture coatings.
Excellent surface treatment. The optimized zirconium oxide and aluminum oxide surface treatments give BLR 698 titanium dioxide excellent chemical stability and physical properties. The zirconium oxide and aluminum oxide coatings effectively isolate the titanium dioxide particles from the external environment, improving the product’s weather and chemical resistance and extending its service life. This surface treatment also enhances the product’s bonding with organic polymer materials, improving the coating’s adhesion and mechanical properties.

Main Applications of Rutile Titanium Dioxide BLR- 698

Exterior architectural coatings. The outdoor environment is complex, and coatings must withstand a variety of factors, including UV rays, rain, and temperature fluctuations. BLR 698’s high weather resistance, excellent hiding power, and gloss make it an ideal choice for exterior architectural coatings. It ensures a building’s vibrant and beautiful appearance remains long-lasting, effectively resisting the elements and protecting the building’s walls.
Industrial coatings. Industrial applications, such as machinery, ships, and automotive parts, place stringent requirements on coating performance. Billions BLR 698’s exceptionally high dispersibility, excellent chemical stability, and mechanical properties make it a valuable addition to industrial coatings. It improves coating adhesion, abrasion resistance, and corrosion resistance, meeting the high quality standards required of industrial products.
Interior architectural coatings. Indoor environments prioritize aesthetics and environmental protection. BLR 698’s high gloss and excellent dispersibility ensure smooth, uniform, and vibrant colors on surfaces such as walls and ceilings. Furthermore, its non-toxic and harmless properties meet the environmental requirements of interior decorative materials, creating a comfortable and healthy living environment.
Printing inks. In printing inks, pigment dispersion, hiding power, and color vividness are crucial. Billions BLR 698 disperses evenly throughout the ink system, providing high hiding power and resulting in clear, rich colors. Whether using offset, gravure, or flexographic printing, it delivers excellent results and is widely used in packaging printing, publication printing, and other fields.

Usage Precautions

Safety: Follow good industrial hygiene practices during handling to avoid dust generation. Prolonged inhalation of titanium dioxide dust may cause damage to the respiratory system. Wear necessary protective equipment during handling, such as a dust mask and safety glasses.
Storage: Do not store the product outdoors and avoid exposure to extreme temperatures and humidity. Excessive temperatures or humidity may affect product performance, such as causing agglomeration and reduced dispersibility. It is recommended that upon receipt, the product be used according to a first-in, first-out principle to ensure optimal performance within its shelf life.
Food Contact: For food contact applications, customers should contact the manufacturer to confirm compliance with specific regulatory requirements to ensure food safety.
Packaging: Common packaging formats include 25 kg bags and a range of flexible intermediate bulk containers. During handling and storage, ensure the integrity of the packaging is maintained to prevent damage that could lead to moisture and contamination.
