High Whiteness Rutile Titanium Dioxide R-130 for Industrial Coatings

Product Description

Product Description

Product Overview

Titanium dioxide (chemical formula: TiO₂) is a vital white inorganic chemical pigment. It is currently the highest-performing white pigment globally, accounting for over 70% of total inorganic pigment production and 95.5% of total white pigment consumption. Renowned for its exceptional whiteness, opacity, weather resistance, and chemical stability, it is hailed as the "King of White Pigments."

Titanium dioxide is non-toxic and chemically stable, featuring a high refractive index, strong tinting strength, excellent dispersibility, and superior heat and light resistance. Thanks to these outstanding properties, it is widely used across numerous industrial sectors—including coatings, plastics, papermaking, inks, chemical fibers, rubber, and cosmetics—and its consumption level is even regarded as a key indicator of a nation's standard of living.

Key Characteristics
High Whiteness: Pure, bright white color that imparts an excellent white finish to the final product.
High Opacity: Strong hiding power effectively masks underlying colors, allowing for reduced dosage.
Excellent Dispersion: Performs well in both water-based and oil-based systems.
Superior Weather Resistance: Resists UV degradation, extending the product's service life.
High Chemical Stability: Resistant to heat, light, acids, and alkalis; does not yellow or decompose at high temperatures.
Non-toxic and Safe: Non-toxic product that meets safety standards across various industries.

Product Types

Based on crystal structure, titanium dioxide is primarily classified into the following two types:

1. Anatase Titanium Dioxide (Anatase, or "A-type")
High whiteness and bright tone

Relatively open crystal lattice structure; exhibits strong photochemical activity

Relatively poor weather resistance; prone to chalking and yellowing in outdoor environments

Suitable for applications with lower weather resistance requirements, such as interior coatings, papermaking, inks, rubber, and cosmetics

2. Rutile Titanium Dioxide (Rutile, or "R-type")
Dense and stable crystal lattice; offers excellent weather resistance and chalking resistance

Reflectance is 25%–30% higher than that of the anatase type, allowing for a 25%–30% reduction in dosage while maintaining the same hiding power

Resistant to UV radiation; resists chalking in outdoor settings and maintains good gloss

Widely used in applications requiring high weather resistance, such as exterior wall coatings, automotive paints, marine paints, powder coatings, and plastics 

Selection Recommendation: Choose the anatase type if the product is intended for indoor use or if cost-efficiency is a priority; choose the rutile type if the product requires long-term outdoor exposure or high durability.

Major Application Areas

Coatings Industry
Titanium dioxide is the most important white pigment in the coatings industry, widely used in interior and exterior architectural coatings, automotive coatings, marine coatings, powder coatings, coil coatings, and more. It significantly enhances the hiding power, gloss, and weather resistance of coatings.

Plastics Industry
The plastics industry is the second-largest consumer of titanium dioxide, accounting for approximately 20% of total consumption. Titanium dioxide enhances the whiteness, brightness, and hiding power of plastic products while improving heat, light, and weather resistance, effectively protecting against UV degradation. It is widely used in packaging materials, automotive interiors, home appliance casings, piping, and masterbatches.

Papermaking Industry
The papermaking industry accounts for 11% of total titanium dioxide consumption. Used as a paper filler, titanium dioxide significantly improves the whiteness, opacity, gloss, and smoothness of paper. It is particularly widely used in high-grade and lightweight papers.

Ink Industry
In inks, titanium dioxide offers advantages such as excellent whiteness, strong hiding power, weather and heat resistance, and chemical stability; it ensures that inks do not yellow or lose gloss during high-temperature baking processes.

Other Fields
Titanium dioxide is also widely used in industries such as chemical fibers (as a delustering agent), rubber (for coloring and reinforcement), cosmetics (for whiteness and opacity), ceramics, enamel, pharmaceuticals, and food packaging. In recent years, its applications have expanded into emerging sectors such as new energy, high-end equipment manufacturing, environmental protection, and medical applications.

Hanjiu Technology was founded by Mr. Han in Shijiazhuang in 2004. In 2024, the company was officially renamed Hanjiu Group. After two decades of development, the Group now comprises five subsidiary companies. Hanjiu Group's business operations encompass mechanical manufacturing as well as the R&D and production of chemical raw materials. In 2024, the Group underwent a strategic restructuring, during which Jiurunfa Chemical was established as the core strategic pillar of the Group's future development. The Group boasts an annual export volume reaching US$30 million, a scale that has consistently ranked among the top three in China's industry sector; its products are exported to over 80 countries and regions worldwide.

As a subsidiary of Hanjiu Group, Jiurunfa Chemical specializes in the R&D and sales of various chemical products. The company operates a titanium dioxide production base spanning over 630 mu (approximately 42 hectares), with an annual output of over 3 million tons of various titanium dioxide products. It also manufactures a range of auxiliary agents used in coatings, plastics, and papermaking—such as dispersants, wetting agents, and rheology modifiers—making it one of the largest and best-equipped titanium dioxide production bases in North China. Furthermore, Beijing Chemical Group provides the company with robust technical support and engages in deep-level cooperation, ensuring that Jiurunfa Chemical's production technology consistently maintains a leading position within the domestic market.
