How to Choose TiO2 for Coatings

Choose titanium dioxide for coatings by defining the binder and paint system, dispersion equipment, pigment volume concentration direction, opacity target, finish, exposure and cost objective. Use those inputs to shortlist documented candidates, then confirm them in formulation and application testing.

Scope: This is general guidance; product-specific facts require an approved exact-grade source.

Information to prepare

  • Interior, exterior or industrial coating system
  • Waterborne or solvent-borne chemistry and dispersion process
  • Current grade and reason for change
  • Opacity, whiteness, tinting, gloss and weathering priorities
  • Laboratory drawdown and production trial plan

Current TITAN MIX C Series links are candidate directions supported by the site evidence map, not a guarantee of fit. Exact parameters must come from the current exact-grade record.
