World press on pigments

Abstract

Titanium dioxide has probably received more publicity in this last year than any other pigment used in the paint and allied industries. In a recent article, Antipov et al. in Lakokras. Mat. 1972, 4, pages 9–11, discuss a laboratory reactor that is suitable for the production of titanium dioxide by TiCl4 oxidation. The reactor has been used to investigate the temperature and residence time on the degree of dispersion and the crystalline structure of the pigment. The conditions prevailing were 700 to 1300°C, 0–20 sec. Experimental results are clearly presented using graphs.
