Titanium dioxide is an inorganic chemical pigment, which is a very important raw material in the coating chemical industry, and is used as a colorant, anti-corrosion, anti-aging, filling and other functions. Its main ingredient is titanium dioxide, a white pigment. Due to its huge demand, there are many manufacturers in the market. As a chemical raw material, it is very necessary and routine to test its performance during the production process.
In this paper, the technical engineers of NBCHAO compiled the testing instrument proposals according to the requirements of laboratory performance testing instruments of a titanium dioxide production enterprise, which can provide a reference for the selection of laboratory testing instruments and equipment in the titanium dioxide industry. It mainly includes material dispersion test, viscosity test, color effect test, product wear resistance, coating film scraping, gloss test and so on.
