Particle Size Analysis of Titanium Oxide Using Laser Diffraction

Particle Size Analysis of Titanium Oxide Using Laser Diffraction Titanium Dioxide (TiO 2 ) is a pigment used in paints and many other applications. The particle size distribution of TiO 2 is critical because it affects many important physical properties that in? uence ? nal product performance. The particle size analysis is typically performed using the laser diffraction technique. This application note describes suggested methodologies when analyzing TiO 2 on the LA-950 laser diffraction particle size analyzer. Introduction Titanium dioxide, also known as titanium (IV) oxide or titania, is the naturally occurring oxide of titanium, chemical formula TiO 2 . It typically comes in two different forms, rutile and anatase. It is used as a pigment in wide range of applications s
