TIOXIDE® TR48 pigment is an alumina surface treated hydrophobic titanium dioxide pigment offering rapid and excellent dispersibility in a large range of polymers in dry processing as well as in liquid plasticizers. TIOXIDE® TR48 pigment fine crystal and particle sizes position it in the group of blue undertone plastics grades. It is designed for exceptional dispersion and throughput and with very low volatiles for high for high temperature processing. Applications TIOXIDE® TR48 pigment is particularly recommended for use in systems in which fineness of pigment dispersion in the polymer combined with low volatiles is the top priority: – Thin films – Co-extruded multi-layer films – Single and multi-layer bottles – Masterbatches – Credit and check cards – Blister packaging – ABS applications Properties at a Glance – Good dispersion and throughput in masterbatch – Effectively no lacing, even at high loadings and temperatures – High bluish white tinting – Good powder (flow) properties and low dust generation, reducing flow problems and dust production in feed systems – Readily wettable in a large range of polymer systems
