TITANIUM DI OXIDE TIO2-R 104

TI-PURE™ R-104

An Integrated, Compostable Solution for Demanding Applications

Ti-Pure™ R-104 is a rutile titanium dioxide (TiO₂) pigment that is a benchmark grade for film and sheet processing due to its opacity, reliability, and compatibility. This grade is now the only titanium dioxide certified for use in compostable resins by DIN CERTCO, an internationally recognized, independent certification body. DIN CERTCO adheres to EN 13432, a globally preferred standard that defines the requirements necessary for flexible and rigid packaging to be considered compostable.

With this certification, you can be assured of using Ti-Pure™ R-104 as an approved, harmless additive to the composting process.

Features and Benefits

Ti-Pure™ R-104 offers the lacing/high-temperature performance of Ti-Pure™ R-101 combined with the bright blue colour of Ti-Pure™ R-103.

Manufactured via a proprietary chloride process, Ti-Pure™ R-104 features:

• Superior opacification for attractive graphics and print pop

• Outstanding, reliable dispersion performance that maximizes processing efficiency

• Excellent lacing resistance that enables down gauging

• Blue undertone for clean, brighter whites

• Superior compatibility with polymers to maximize master batch loading

• Certified as harmless to the composting process
