CR538 – Chloride Process Rutile Titanium Dioxide (Comparable to R902 TiO₂)

🌍 Introduction

Our CR538 rutile titanium dioxide pigment is produced using the modern chloride process, ensuring high purity, fine particle size, and superior optical performance. With over three decades of titanium dioxide expertise, we have optimized our process to deliver a product that stands close in quality to r902 tio2, but at a more competitive price.

🔬 Chloride Process Technology

The chloride route is recognized as the most advanced method for producing rutile titanium dioxide. Instead of dissolving ores in acid as in the sulfate process, titanium-bearing feedstock is first chlorinated into TiCl₄ gas. This gas is then oxidized at very high temperatures, forming rutile crystals with:

Uniform particle size distribution

Exceptional whiteness and brightness

Improved UV shielding ability

High chemical stability and weather resistance

This technology minimizes impurities and enables a clean, continuous production line, resulting in pigments suitable for demanding applications such as coatings, plastics, and masterbatch.
