TiO₂ Production Processes

Chloride Process

The chloride process produces high-purity rutile TiO₂ with excellent optical and durability properties. Generally preferred for exterior coatings and applications requiring superior weathering resistance. Produces less waste but requires high-grade titanium feedstock.

Sulfate Process

The sulfate process can produce both rutile and anatase TiO₂ from lower-grade feedstocks. More flexible in raw material requirements but generates more waste products. Suitable for a wide range of applications including interior coatings, plastics, and paper.
