When it comes to manufacturing polyolefin master batches, biaxially oriented polypropylene (BOPP) films and engineering compounds, plastic producers require titanium dioxide (TiO2) pigments that will disperse rapidly and process well – even at high temperatures.
Gray
To support the plastics industry, we have developed TIOXIDE® TR48 pigment – an alumina surface treated, hydrophobic titanium dioxide grade.
High temperature performance
Engineered to process well at high temperatures, TIOXIDE® TR48 pigment provides fast dispersion in a range of plastics and has excellent coloristic and tint reduction capabilities. With a fine crystal and particle size that delivers a blue undertone and high opacity, TIOXIDE® TR48 pigment has been developed with low volatile organic compound (VOC) formulations in mind.
Typical applications for TIOXIDE® TR48 pigment include premium and general packaging systems, and the production of plastic parts for consumer electronic devices and the automotive industry.
Part of a wider product family
TIOXIDE® TR48 pigment is part of our TIOXIDE® TR28 family, which has a long history of excellent processing performance in a wide range of plastics systems.
We also offer a range of additional TIOXIDE® and SACHTLEBEN® pigments, which are known for their performance in a variety of masterbatch, compound and plastics processing systems.
