Titanium Dioxide (TiO₂) is a brilliant white pigment used across industries, from paints and coatings to tablet coatings and sunscreen. While typically supplied as a fine, pre-micronized powder, TiO₂ has a tendency to re-agglomerate when added to liquid, forming hard lumps that reduce performance and optical quality.
That’s where high shear mixing comes in.
Conventional agitators often can’t break down these agglomerates. But with a Silverson High Shear Mixer, TiO₂ particles are rapidly and uniformly dispersed, delivering:
✅ Agglomerate-free dispersion
✅ Optimal pigment distribution
✅ Maximum opacity and gloss
✅ Reduced mixing time
Each pass through the workhead progressively breaks down particle clusters, achieving consistent results for even the most demanding formulations.
