Rutile Titanium Dioxide By Sulphate Process  

Rutile Titanium Dioxide By Sulphate Process  Property: Titanium dioxide (or titanium dioxide) is widely used in various structural surface coatings, paper coatings and fillers, plastics and elastomers, and other uses include ceramics, glass, catalysts, coating fabrics, printing inks, roof tiles and fluxes. According to statistics, the global demand for titanium dioxide in 2006 reached 4.6 million tons, of which the coatings industry accounted for 58%, the plastics industry accounted for 23%, papermaking 10%, and other 9%. Titanium dioxide can be made from ilmenite, rutile, or titanium slag. There are two production processes for titanium dioxide: sulfate process and chloride process. The technology of the sulfate method is simpler than that of the chloride method, and it can be used for low-level and cheaper minerals. Today, about 47% of the world's production capacity uses the sulfate process and 53% of the production capacity is the chloride process. The c…
