Interior gloss

For architectural and decorative coatings, there are two primary types of TiO₂ pigments: those for enamel grade performance below Critical Pigment Volume Concentration (CPVC) and those with improved spacing characteristics for above CPVC paint applications.

Ti-Pure®R-706 and R-900 are available to cover this range of paints.

• Ti Pure® R-900 offers effective hiding and cost efficiency for high-quality gloss paints above CPVC if the customer is willing to stock multiple TiO₂ products.
  TiO₂ pigments with low levels of surface treatment are recommended for these relatively low Pigment Volume Concentration (PVC) paints, below CPVC. Ti-Pure® R-900 is the ideal selection for alkyd and latex paint applications requiring maximum gloss performance.

• Ti Pure® R-706 is multipurpose pigment designed to combine end-use properties such as chalk resistance, high gloss and maximum gloss retention in coatings. The combination of these properties associated to an alumina treatment, which optimizes dipersibility and provides a good hiding power, makes Ti Pure® R-706 suitable for interior gloss paint applications.
