Titanium dioxide,as a kind of high-quality white pigment filler, has a wide range of USES, such as plastic profile, color masterbatch, paint, emulsion paint, powder paint, paper making, chemical fiber and cosmetics, etc. It should be used for both the water system and the solvent system and the solvent-free system. There are additional requirements for selecting organic coating agents due to the different applications and application systems, and there are significant differences. Simple use of traditional TMP or peg can no longer meet the requirements and has some adverse effects, such as the bubble problem. According to the different USES of titanium dioxide, various organic treating agents should be used to treat the titanium dioxide to achieve a satisfactory treatment effect in the application. Different USES of titanium dioxide, titanium dioxide application processing performance requirements are also other.
Requirements for titanium dioxide for plastics
1. High viscosity dispersion/extrusion lubrication
To improve the strength of plastic products and reduce the cost, plastic products in the color filler added more and more, the proportion of resin is smaller and smaller, the compatibility and lubricity of each component are more and more difficult, easy to lead to the surface of plastic products rough and color uneven. Take the color masterbatch commonly used in the plastic industry as an example: the color masterbatch is generally made by extrusion and granulation of titanium dioxide powder after kneaded at high temperature using organic resin with a low density such as high-pressure polyethylene or polyethylene wax as the carrier. To produce a high concentration of white masterbatch and avoid low resin compatibility during the application, it is required to use as little carrier resin as possible to moisten as much titanium dioxide as possible. Therefore, titanium dioxide used in the production of masterbatches must have excellent surface wettability and lubrication properties. Otherwise, it will be challenging to granulate, challenging to disperse or distribute unevenly in use.

2. Temperature/weather resistance
The vast majority of plastic products, no matter what kind of resin, no matter what processing method, need to be in the high-temperature melt state with titanium dioxide and other additives before processing and forming. The processing temperature of plastic products is around 200 degrees (or even higher). If some components decompose at this temperature, pigment migration and porosity will be caused, seriously affecting plastic products’ surface quality and physical strength. Therefore, the temperature resistance of each component in the formula must be excellent. Besides, for most plastic products (such as plastic film, plastic electrical appliances) used in an outdoor or healthy light environment, UV resistance must also be considered. In the processing of PVC plastic products, a lead stabilizer is usually added. This kind of stabilizer is easy to react with other active chemical materials at high temperatures and produce black substances, which is the “lead black” problem in plastic processing. Therefore, the organic coating agent on the titanium dioxide surface must be entirely inert for the lead stabilizer.

3. Dry powder fluidity/moisture resistance
More and more factories use continuous production line in plastic products, related raw materials (such as resins, fillers, pigments) will also use transmission belt or vibration leakage sieve equipment to continuously automatic metering. Suppose the flow of titanium dioxide dry powder is not good. In that case, it will be stuck in the transmission belt or plug the screen hole, resulting in titanium dioxide that can not be accurately measured and smoothly added, thus affecting the quality of plastic products.

Introduction to silicon carbide products
Silicon carburide also known by the names moissanite or emery is an inorganic material with a formula of SiC. It is produced by melting quartz sand with wood chips, coke or petroleum coke. In nature, silicon carbide is found in the rare mineral moissanite. It is the most popular and cost-effective refractory material among the non-oxide materials like C, N, and B. It can also be called refractory or gold steel. In China, silicon carbide is made up of two types: green and black. They are both hexagonal crystals and have a specific gravity ranging from 3.20 to 3.25.

Both black silicon carburide and green silica carbide belong to the aSiC. Black silicon carbide has a SiC content of 95% and is more durable than green silicon carbide. It is used primarily for materials that have low tensile strengths, like glass, ceramics or stone. Green silicon carbide has a SiC content of over 97% and is self-sharpening. It is used primarily for the processing of cemented carbide (a titanium alloy), optical glass and titanium alloy. Also, it can be used to fine grind high-speed steel and for honing and grinding cylinder liners. There is also a cubic silicon-carbide, a yellowish-green crystal, prepared through a special method. The abrasive tools used to make them are suitable for superfinishing bearings. Surface roughness is processed between Ra320.16microns and Ra0.040.02 microns.

Aside from being an abrasive, silicon carbide can be used in many other ways. This is due to its chemical stability, high thermal conductivity (low thermal expansion coefficient), and wear resistance. The powder of silicon carbide can be used to coat a specific impeller, cylinder or other part of a turbine. The inner wall of the refractory can be improved to increase its resistance to abrasion and its life span by upto 2 times. Low-grade Silicon carbide (containing approximately 85% SiC), which is an excellent Deoxidizer and can improve steel quality, speed up the steelmaking process and allow for better control of chemical composition. In addition, silicon carbide can be used to produce silicon carbide for electric heater elements.
It is the second hardest substance in the world, after diamonds (10). It is a good thermal conductor, a semiconductor that can resist oxidation even at high temperatures.

There are at least 70 crystal forms of silicon carbide. Allomorphs of silicon carbide are the most common. It has a hexagonal crystalline structure and is formed above 2000 degC at high temperatures. b Silicon Carbide has cubic crystals, similar to a diamond. The network can be seen on the page. It is a more attractive catalyst because of the higher surface area. A type of silicon carburide called m-silicon is more stable and makes a nicer sound when it collides. However, until now these two types had not been used commercially.
Due to its high sublimation temp (approximately 27°C) and 3.2g/cm3 specific weight, silicon carbide makes a great raw material for bearings and high-temperature ovens. It does not melt at any pressure, and it has a very low chemical activity. Its high thermal conductivity and breakdown electric field strength as well as its high maximum current densities have led many to try to replace silicon when it comes to high-power semiconductor components. It has a high coupling effect to microwave radiation.
The colorless silicon carbide produced in industrial production is caused by iron impurities. The silica coating on the surface of the crystal gives it a rainbow-like appearance. To

Pure silicon carbide is a transparent, colorless crystal. The impurities in industrial silicon carbide cause it to be light yellow or green. It can also be blue, black, or dark brown. Its clarity varies according to its purity. The cubic b-SiC is also known as cubic silicon carbide. The different stacking of silicon and carbon atoms creates a variety of a SiC variants. Over 70 types have been identified. bSiC is transformed into aSiC at temperatures above 2100degC. Industrial silicon carbide is produced by refining petroleum coke and high-quality sand in a resistance oven. The silicon carbide blocks that have been refined are then crushed and subjected to acid-base washing, magnetic separation, sieving, or water selection in order to obtain products with different particle sizes.
It is artificial because silicon carbide has a low natural content. The standard method is to combine quartz sand, coke with silica or petroleum coke. Add salt and wood chips and heat to 2000degC in an electrical furnace.
Its excellent hardness has made it an indispensable abrasive, but its range of applications goes beyond that of general abrasives. Due to its thermal conductivity and high-temperature resistance, it is a popular choice for kiln furniture in tunnel kilns. The electrical conductivity of this material makes it a vital electric heating element. SiC pellets are also known as emery because of their high C content and super-hardness. It is not natural emery, also known as garnet. In the industrial production of SiC, quartz, petroleum coal, etc. is usually used. As raw materials, as auxiliary recovery material, or as spent materials. After grinding or other processes, the materials are blended to a charge that has a reasonable particle size and ratio to adjust its gas permeability. An appropriate amount must be added. To prepare green silicon carbide at high temperatures, you need to add the correct amount of sodium chloride. Special silicon carbide electric heaters are used for the thermal equipment to prepare SiC smelting at high temperatures. Its main components are the furnace bottom with electrodes in the interior, the sidewall that can be removed, and the furnace core. Both ends of this furnace are electrode-connected. In this electric oven, the firing method is known as buried-powder firing. As soon as you turn it on, the heating begins. The core of the furnace can reach temperatures as high as 2600degC. SiC synthesizes at 1450degC (though SiC mainly forms above 1800degC), and co is released. SiC decomposes when the temperature is >=2600. The decomposed si, however, will form SiC and C in the charged.
Each electric heater is equipped with transformers. Even so, during production only one electric heater is operated to adjust voltage in accordance with the electrical load characteristics and maintain constant power. The high-power furnace must be heated for around 24 hours. The reaction that generates SiC stops after an interruption in power. After a cooling time, the sidewalls can be removed. The charge is then gradually removed. Silicon carbide can be divided up into many different categories. These are divided according to their use environment and more often than not, silicon carbide is used in machinery. Silicon carbide seal rings can, for example, be used to seal mechanical seals. These seal rings can be further divided into flat ring or moving ring. Our silicon carbide products can also be made in different shapes according to the customer’s requirements. For example, we can produce silicon carbide plates and rings.
One of the silicon-carbide products is silicon carbide, which has high hardness, corrosion resistance and high temperature strength. Silicon carbide ceramics have a wide range of applications.
Silicon carbide ceramics are ideal for seal rings. They have a high level of chemical resistance and wear resistance. The friction coefficient of silicon carbide ceramic is smaller when combined with graphite than alumina and cemented carbide. Therefore, it can be used to produce PV values that are higher, particularly in conditions where strong acids or alkalis will be transported. The SIC-1 atmospheric sintered silicon carbide products manufactured by our company are characterized by high density and high hardness. Large production batches can be produced, as well as products of complex shapes. They are ideal for sealing applications requiring high-performance, with high PV values. The SIC-3 materials produced by our company contain graphite. When combined with other materials, the friction coefficient of silicon carbide is low because it contains fine dispersed graphite particles. It is self-lubricating and therefore ideal for air-tight, dry-friction sealings. It is used to increase the seals’ service life, and improve the reliability of the work.

After high-temperature calibration, furnace charges are unreacted materials (to preserve heat in the furnace), silica carbide oxycarbide material (semi reactive material), and carbonates of Fe, Al Ca Mg. The binder layer is used to bond the very tight material. It is composed of C, SiO2, Fe, Al Ca Mg Carbonate, 60% to 70% SiC. The unreacted and a small part of oxycarbide layers are usually collected and used as spent materials. A large part of this material is also collected along with amorphous and second-grade products, as well as a small part of the bonding material. Large lumps, tight bonds and impurities such as charges are discarded. First-grade product is classified and then coarsely or finely crushed. It’s then chemically processed, dried and sieved. Then it is magnetically separated and transformed into various size black and green SiC particles. It is necessary to go through the water selection process in order to produce silicon carbide.
