Celeritas Chemicals Introduces Chloride-Produced CELCHEM 14201-1 Titanium Dioxide for Paint, Coatings, Graphic Arts and Pigment Dispersion Applications
December 2, 2011 Southlake, TX. Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is the most widely used white pigment because of its brightness and very high refractive index, which it’s surpassed only by a few other materials. TiO2 is an effective hiding pigment in powder form, where it provides whiteness and opacity. Approximately 4 million tons of TiO2 are consumed annually worldwide for pigment applications.
The major consuming industries for TiO2 pigments are mature sectors in the developed world such as plastics, surface coatings, paper and paperboard. Therefore, consumption of TiO2 tends to parallel general economic trends. Paint and coating applications account for the largest world share, with plastics and paper accounting for most of the rest.
In response to the increasing global and regional demand for TiO2, Celeritas Chemicals now offers CELCHEM 14201-1 as an additive for use in the following applications:
- Paint & Coatings Market Segments (Trade Sales, Architectural, Industrials, Maintenance, Chemical Coatings, Product Finishing, Powder Coatings)

Celeritas Chemicals new 14201-1 TiO2 when deposited as a thin film, its refractive index and color make it an excellent reflective optical coating for dielectric mirrors and some gemstones like "mystic fire topaz". Opacity is improved by optimal sizing of the titanium dioxide particles.
