The Role of the Surface in the Behaviour of Titanium Dioxide Pigments

Abstract
A review is presented on the relevance of surface properties in
pigment behaviour. It is shown that the majority of titanium
dioxide pigments in use have a coating of some other oxide. whose
principal role is the formation of an energy barrier for the transfer
of excited species from the bulk phase to the organic coating of the
paint film. Results of recent studies of dispersion properties and
durability of paints against photo-degradation are discussed.
