Enabling Superior Brightness and Opacity in Paper and Paperboard Applications
Manufacturers of coated paper and paperboard need to ensure their TiO₂ has:
- High opacity and hiding power
- Excellent, consistent brightness
- Optimal efficiency
- Good stability and compatibility with other formulation components
The Chemours offering for the paper industry is designed to bring excellent brightness and opacity when used in either the wet end or coating applications, enabling consistent whiteness which is essential for printing reproducibility.
Ti-Pure™ R-942P
This high-solids, rutile TiO₂ slurry is produced by chloride process technology and offers high brightness and excellent stability. Learn more about Ti-Pure™ R-942P.

Ti-Pure™ R-900
Ti-Pure™ R-900 is a dry, rutile pigment offering for the paper industry. This offering gives flexibility for customers without slurry handling capability.
Titanium Dioxide for Paper and Paperboard
High-quality titanium dioxide (TiO₂) adds indispensable value to materials used in the production of high-opacity lightweight papers and coated paperboard for packaging applications.
The Ti-Pure™ TiO₂ Advantage:
Quality Assurance in Product Manufacturing
Ti-Pure™ TiO₂ pigments are known for their high quality, consistency, and reliability. Inconsistent TiO₂ products result in coatings with unreliable optical properties. In-line converters rely on the ability to print and assemble specialty packages with predictable color, printability, and elasticity. Ti-Pure™ TiO₂ is manufactured to meet all quality and consistency targets, delivering:
Reel-to-reel color consistency
One main reason that paper mills lose production time and profitability is a lack of reel-to-reel color and appearance consistency. Using the right TiO₂ enables consistent color, brightness, and reduced mottle every time, improving production time and increasing profit.
Opacity and Appearance
TiO₂ pigments help paper coatings cover dark and rough surfaces of paperboard used in packaging applications. Ti-Pure™ R-942P delivers reliable opacity and coverage, enabling a uniform, bright white coating.
Reliable runnability
Batch to batch consistency of Ti-Pure™ R-942P slurry ensures that the formulation and application of coatings made with our product will deliver the expected results day after day. Viscosity and shear performance are critical parameters for high-speed coating application, and our product is designed to be a key component of your success.
