Optimized Processability
Excellent Lacing Resistance
When evaluated at an identical 70% loading across various shear rates, our product demonstrates a significantly smaller variation in viscosity compared to the benchmark titanium dioxide. This means that our product is exceptionally well-suited for high-temperature extrusion coating and lamination applications (such as packaging material production). During these high-speed, high-temperature manufacturing processes, it effectively reduces the risk of pinholes, cracking, or lacing defects on the film surface, thereby safeguarding overall product quality.
Melt viscosity directly controls how a TiO2-loaded compound behaves during extrusion, coating, and film-blowing. Two samples were tested at identical loading — 30% LDPE (12 MFI) as the carrier resin plus 70% of either (1) DW-1070, Super-dispersed TiO2 Masterbatch or (2) reference rutile titanium dioxide, TiO2(616S). At 190 °C, DW-1070 shows a much flatter viscosity profile than the reference — starting at ~6575 Pa·s vs ~20800 Pa·s at low shear, and converging at high shear. This makes DW-1070 especially suited to high-temperature extrusion coating and lamination (e.g., flexible packaging) where high speeds and high temperatures otherwise risk pinholes, cracks, and surface defects in the finished film.
Improving Compounding Efficiency
Incorporating DW-1070 significantly reduces the time required to reach a homogeneous melt state, effortlessly shortening processing cycle times. This not only translates to higher production efficiency but also drives down unit energy consumption and overall manufacturing costs.
Internal mixer power consumption is a direct measure of how much energy is needed to incorporate and disperse a pigment into the resin. Two samples were compared in an internal mixer (Banbury / BR) — 30% LDPE (12 MFI) carrier resin plus 70% of either (1) DW-1070, Super-dispersed TiO2 Masterbatch or (2) reference rutile titanium dioxide, TiO2(616S). The reference powder needs full wetting and dispersive mixing — peak power climbs to ~27 kW with fusion at ~41 s. DW-1070, already pre-dispersed in carrier resin, only requires distributive blending — peak power stays around ~13 kW with fusion at ~10 s, then settles to a low, steady ~8 kW.
~52% Lower Peak Power
Pre-dispersed pigment means no need for high-energy dispersive mixing — peak motor load drops dramatically, protecting motor and gearbox from overload trips.
~4× Faster Fusion
Fusion in ~10 s instead of ~41 s shortens cycle time, multiplies batch throughput on the same equipment, and reduces residence time at high temperature.
Lower Energy & Cost per kg
Lower peak + shorter cycle = significantly less kWh per kilogram of compound, with the bonus of less wear on rotors and chamber walls.
Low Volatile Content
This prevents the formation of bubbles and silver streaks (splay marks) during processing, effectively guaranteeing a high finished product yield.
Low volatile content is critical for high-temperature plastics processing — excess moisture or volatiles cause bubbles, silver streaks and surface defects. DW-1070 retains 99.5% of its initial mass even at 150 °C, confirming an ultra-low volatile content suitable for demanding extrusion and injection-molding conditions.
