From our whole range of inorganic minerals, that differ in terms of chemistry, morphology, particle size, oil absorption, brightness, hardness and density, we selected various minerals for the purpose of evaluating and verifying their suitability in powder coatings and their performance-enhancement potential. More specifically, we looked at how minerals can act as titanium dioxide extenders without compromising the overall performance. In a second study, we examined the use of wollastonite to improve anticorrosion performance. Powder coatings producers are still seeking a solution that will partially replace titanium dioxide to offset fluctuations in prices and ...
