Applied Rigaku Technologies, Inc. announced a new empirical method for the elemental analysis of titanium and iron in kaolin clay.

Wollastonite (calcium metasilicate) is growing in popularity as a versatile additive in coatings to reduce cost and improve performance.

Celocor™ opaque polymer is a voided latex product that imparts hiding and functions as a partial replacement for titanium dioxide, providing an effective way to reduce raw material costs and improve hiding in a wide range of products, including interior or exterior coatings from flat to semigloss.

Arkema Coating Resins has introduced Celocor™ opaque polymer, a voided latex product that imparts hiding and functions as a partial replacement for titanium dioxide (TiO₂).

ROPAQUE opaque polymer and EVOQUE pre-composite polymer offer two distinct and complimentary approaches to reducing the use levels of TiO2.

Newer ultrafine nepheline syenite sizes have refractive index and physical properties that are particularly well suited for use as a performance additive in radiation-curable coatings, inks and adhesives.
