Ti-Pure™ R-706 is a universal pigment that offers exceptional performance in interior, exterior, and industrial applications and possesses a unique combination of performance properties that may allow for inventory reduction. R-706 is well suited for applications requiring high initial haze-free gloss and superior gloss retention over the life of the coating.
A rutile titanium dioxide pigment, R-706 is manufactured by the chloride process and is supplied as a fine, dry powder or in aqueous slurry form (R-746). It is specifically formulated to provide:
Exceptional gloss and semi-gloss performance
Brighter, cleaner colors in tinted systems from a blue undertone
Superior durability, gloss retention, and chalk resistance
Easy wet-in
Great dispersability in solvent and waterborne systems
High opacity
Applications where Ti-Pure™ R-706 is of particular value are:
Exterior architectural applications requiring high gloss and maximum durability
Emulsion trim paints where maximum initial gloss and outstanding exterior durability are preferred
Refinish and OEM topcoat applications requiring high gloss, distinctness of image, and resistance to weathering
Manufacturing operations demanding fast wet-in and easy dispersion
High-durability industrial applications including coil coatings for residential aluminum siding, architectural building panels, and aerospace coatings
