Description
TR-898 Rutile Titanium Dioxide for Coatings
TR-898 titanium dioxide is a general-purpose rutile pigment manufactured by the sulfate process. Its alumina, zirconia and organic surface treatment supports dispersion and optical performance in coating formulations.
With controlled particle size, TR-898 offers high brightness, gloss, hiding power and weather resistance. It is suitable for evaluation in water-based and solvent-based systems, including industrial, architectural and powder coatings.
Key Features
- High hiding power: supports opacity in white and tinted coatings.
- Brightness and gloss: helps achieve the required coating appearance.
- Easy dispersion: suitable for water-based and solvent-based formulation evaluation.
- Weather resistance: suitable for evaluation in interior and exterior coating applications.
Recommended Applications
- General-purpose industrial coatings
- Powder coatings
- Architectural coatings for interior and exterior use
- Special-purpose coatings, subject to formulation testing
Evaluate TR-898 in your actual resin system and production process. Compare dispersion, hiding power, brightness, gloss and durability against your current pigment before commercial use.

Frequently Asked Questions
What type of titanium dioxide is TR-898?
TR-898 is a sulfate-process rutile titanium dioxide pigment with alumina, zirconia and organic surface treatment.
Can TR-898 be used in water-based and solvent-based coatings?
The TDS identifies dispersion and brightness performance in both formulation types. Suitability should be confirmed in your specific resin system and processing conditions.
Is TR-898 suitable for exterior architectural coatings?
The TDS lists exterior architectural coatings among its applications and identifies high weather resistance as a feature. Validate durability against the requirements of your finished coating.
Can TR-898 replace our current titanium dioxide grade?
Replacement suitability depends on the formulation and performance targets. Compare samples under the same testing conditions before deciding on a substitution.
