Description
TR-888 Rutile Titanium Dioxide for Plastics
TR-888 titanium dioxide is a sulfate-process rutile pigment developed for plastics applications. Its alumina and organic surface treatment supports easy dispersion and good optical properties in polymer formulations.
With high whiteness, oxidation and yellowing resistance, TR-888 is recommended for evaluation in polyolefin masterbatch, styrenic compounds, PVC, plastisols and rubber.
Key Features
- High whiteness for white and coloured plastic formulations.
- Easy dispersion in suitable polymer and masterbatch systems.
- Oxidation and yellowing resistance as described in the technical data sheet.
- Good processing performance across a wide range of polymers.
Recommended Applications
- Polyolefin masterbatch
- Styrenic compounds
- Rigid and flexible PVC
- Plastisols
- Rubber
Evaluate TR-888 in your actual resin system and production process. Compare dispersion, whiteness, colour stability and processing performance against your current pigment before commercial use.
