The CPCA discusses upcoming Canadian TiO2 regulatory assessments in the wake of the European Union’s recent related decisions, specifically surrounding TiO2 carcinogen classification.
TiPMC discusses the current TiO2 market specifically in regards to projections in demands outside of China, sales for the first half of 2023, and changes in the current destocking trend.
The first two products in the new Ti-Pure™ Sustainability series include Ti-Pure TS-6300 and Ti-Pure TS-6200. Both are existing grades specifically designed to empower coatings formulators to create high-quality, long-lasting products that reduce material consumption and CO2 emissions.
