CHLORIDE PROCESS · PLASTICS & MASTERBATCH
TYR-568
Chloride-process rutile dedicated to plastics. Targets engineering plastics (PVC, PE, PP, ABS), PS and copolymers, masterbatch, and film blowing; highest CBU spec (≥16) among the plastics-only grades.
TYR-568 is a rutile titanium dioxide pigment produced by an advanced chloride process and treated with special inorganic and organic surface treatments, giving good whiteness, a bluish undertone, high tinctorial strength and good dispersibility for plastics applications.
