Rutile Titanium Dioxide HR248

Titanium Dioxide HR-248 is a sulfate-process rutile grade with fine particle size and high gloss, produced using imported sand mills for wet grinding. Surface-treated with dense alumina and silica, it delivers excellent weather resistance and durability.

HR-248 is widely used in PVC, coatings, etching inks, paper, road marking lines, and especially in masterbatch applications. As a high-performance titanium dioxide for masterbatch, it ensures strong hiding power, brightness, and dispersion. This makes it an ideal choice for titanium dioxide masterbatch (TiO₂ masterbatch) formulations requiring consistent quality and long-term stability.

What is TiO2 in inks?

Understanding the Use of Titanium Dioxide in Printing Inks

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is the primary white pigment used in the ink industry to provide essential opacity, brightness, and a solid base for color printing. It works by scattering light, which allows the ink layer to fully hide the substrate—whether it’s dark plastic film, metallic foil, or recycled paper. Without high-quality TiO2, white inks would remain transparent, and colors would appear dull or faded on non-white surfaces. In professional formulations, choosing a rutile grade is the key to achieving a “stark white” finish with minimal ink consumption.
