Efficiency is a vital factor in market survival and one of the many factors that decide efficiency is correct materials selection, which must balance the need for quality, on the one hand, with the need for the lowest possible costs, on the other.
Titanium dioxide is one of the main raw material in the production of emulsion paints. Lithopone(lithopone 30%)can play a key role as an alternative, with no loss of quality. Increasingly large quantities of lithopone are being incorporated into emulsion paints for this reason. The benefits offered by lithopone in emulsion paints and describes in detail the procedure for adjusting paint formulations for the use of lithopone.
These rules are discussed in more detail. The example of an interior emulsion paint is used to calculate replacement of 50% of TiO2 content with lithopone,while simultaneously increasing pigment surface concentration (PSC) to 95%.
Around 20 to 60% of the titanium dioxide in the original formulation can be replaced with lithopone. The precise percentage of partial replacement in any specific formulation should be determined in advance by means of testing, using a test series (replacement of e.g. 20%, 40% and 60% of the titanium dioxide), for example, and assessment of the results.
