TINOX® TiO₂ Grades for Southeast Asian Markets
Southeast Asia presents unique formulation challenges: tropical heat, high humidity, UV intensity and rapidly growing plastics and automotive manufacturing sectors. At Booth #E18, our technical team presented four grades specifically suited to these conditions:
- TINOX® R-2280 — Plastics & Masterbatch
Chloride-process rutile with outstanding dispersibility and heat stability up to 280°C. Thailand is Southeast Asia’s largest automotive plastics manufacturing hub — R-2280 is the ideal grade for polymer compounding and colour masterbatch applications requiring consistent whiteness under high-temperature processing. - TINOX® CR-1220 — Automotive OEM Coatings
Specialty chloride-process rutile engineered for high-durability automotive topcoats and refinish systems. With Thailand producing over 1.8 million vehicles annually, CR-1220 meets the strict hiding power, gloss and weathering requirements of OEM automotive paint lines. - TINOX® R-2290 — Outdoor & Anti-Humidity Coatings
High-performance rutile optimised for tropical outdoor conditions. Excellent resistance to moisture, UV radiation and chalking — essential for exterior architectural coatings in high-humidity Southeast Asian climates across Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia and Malaysia. - TINOX® A-2380 — Fiber & Technical Textiles
Anatase grade with high purity and excellent compatibility with synthetic fibers. Southeast Asia is the world’s second-largest textile manufacturing region — A-2380 is widely used in polyester fiber delustering, nonwoven fabrics and technical textile applications across the ASEAN manufacturing base.
