摘要:
A method may be used for reducing titanium dioxide in a composition for forming decorative paper for use in laminated products. The method may include providing a pigment composition including titanium dioxide, and combining the pigment composition with a titanium dioxide extender including at least two particulate minerals to form a combined pigment composition. The titanium dioxide extender may include diatomaceous earth and at least one of aluminosilicate and talc. Combining the pigment composition with the titanium dioxide extender may result in reducing the titanium dioxide by at least 10% while substantially maintaining at least one of whiteness, wet whiteness, brightness, wet brightness, opacity, wet opacity, and resin impregnation of the decorative paper produced including the titanium dioxide extender relative to the decorative paper produced with the titanium dioxide but without the titanium dioxide extender.
摘要:
Novel titania-calcined kaolin composite pigments wherein structuring and adhesion of titania and calcined kaolin particles is achieved by use of a cationic polyelectrolyte. Methods for compositing titania and calcined kaolin pigments which feature the presence of at least one polyanionic dispersant (such as sodium polyacrylate, sodium silicate, sodium condensed phosphate or mixtures thereof) in the pigment slurry into which cationic polyelectrolyte is introduced and the use of strongly alkaline pH (e.g., above 9).
摘要:
A set of spherical inorganic particles having the particular property of being spontaneously individualized, both in dry state in the form of a powder and when they are dispersed in a matrix. The method for producing the particles, and the materials produced by including the particles in the matrices are also described.

摘要:
A pigment mixture comprising (a) pigment particles, (b) colloidal spacer particles dispersed on surfaces of the pigment particles, and (c) carrier particles, wherein the pigment particles with colloidal spacer particles are dispersed on surfaces of the carrier particles. A pigment mixture of titanium dioxide pigment particles having colloidal silica spacer particles on surfaces of the titanium dioxide, the titanium dioxide and colloidal silica attached to surfaces of diatomaceous earth carrier particles, provides improved optical efficiency of the pigment and improved retention in a paper fiber matrix.
