Titanium dioxide, or Titania, is an inorganic compound known for its pure white powder form with the chemical formula TiO2. It typically exists in two primary crystal structures: rutile and anatase. Anatase, being cost-effective, easily dispersible in water-based systems, and an excellent opacifier, has untreated titanium dioxide with a refractive index of 2.55. However, it is infrequently employed in exterior paint applications, excluding highway paints.
The sulfur process enables the production of titanium dioxide (TiO2) in both anatase and rutile forms through the following steps:
