Our titanium dioxide specialities for all plastics
Rutile pigments
Easily dispersible rutile titanium dioxide pigments of the Hombitan R610 K grade are the guarantee of high whiteness in window sections, garden furniture, domestic appliances (toaster housings and smoothing-iron casings, etc.) and plastic components for the automotive industry; they protect against yellowing and prevent embrittlement of the material. The outstanding properties of our Hombitan pigments are also highly esteemed in polymer-based paints and coatings.
You can obtain more information on Hombitan R610 K, our special pigment for plastics, in the form of a pdf file download from our server, our by ordering the relevant publications on-line.
Anatase micro crystals
Anatase titanium dioxide pigments of the various Hombitan grades are indispensable for delustering of naturally transparent man-made fibers. Exceptional demands are made on the hyper-fine white material. It must guarantee extremely ready dispersibility, i.e. easy distribution and incorporation into the raw plastic compound, just as perfectly as excellent whitenesses and high opacity. Perfect anatase microcrystals are decisive not only for the quality of end products, however. Optimum dispersibility and freedom from oversize particles play a major role even at the manufacturing stage if thread breakages and the cost-intensive production stoppages they cause, are to be avoided. Sachtleben is the world's acknowledged quality leader in the field of delustering of man-made fibers. A major part of all the synthetic fibers made and used around the world contain Hombitan anatase microcrystals from Duisburg. Hombitan anatase pigments are also eminently suitable for high-quality art-reproduction and laminated papers.
Innovative nano-titanium dioxide products
These exceptionally fine-particled, transparent, easy-to-use formulations have a large and diverse range of potential applications. In the new generations of UV protection for plastics, for instance, and also in sun-protection cosmetics. In addition, nano-scale primary particles form the basis for innovative Wood protection agents and are also used, inter alia, for Color-Styling, the Paints and Coatings industry's innovative route to new colour nuances.
