Titanium Dioxide TiO2 – Anatase

Anatase is one of the three mineral forms of Titanium Dioxide TiO2.

A vital ingredient for diverse industrial applications, Titanium Dioxide ( TiO2 ) is the most commonly used white pigment in the world.
 
 
More than four million tonnes are used annually for a variety of industrial applications like manufacturing of Paint, Rubber, Paper, Detergents, Cosmetics, Printing Inks, Textiles, Plastics among other products.
 
Titanium Dioxide Anatase is always found as small, isolated and sharply developed crystals, and like rutile, a more commonly occurring modification of titanium dioxide, it crystallizes in the tetragonal system; but, although the degree of symmetry is the same for both, there is no relation between the interfacial angles of the two minerals, except in the prism-zone of 45° and 90°. The common pyramid of anatase, parallel to the faces of which there are perfect cleavages, has an angle over the polar edge of 82°9', the corresponding angle of rutile being 56°52½'.

It was on account of this steeper pyramid of anatase that the mineral was named, by René Just Haüy in 1801, from the Greek anatasis, “extension", the vertical axis of the crystals being longer than in rutile.

 

We P V Enterprises, are the Importer and Supplier of Titanium Dioxide Anatase TiO2 on PAN India basis.

Titanium Dioxide TiO2 – Anatase

There are also important differences between the physical characters of anatase and rutile:

the former is less hard (5.5–6 vs. 6-6.5 Mohs) and dense (specific gravity about 3.9 vs. 4.2). Also, anatase is optically negative whereas rutile is positive, and its luster is even more strongly adamantine or metallic-adamantine than that of rutile.
