Dow develops EVOQUE pre-composite polymer technology to replace titanium dioxide

According to China Drying News, most of the traditional coatings use titanium dioxide as the main ingredient for achieving the cover function. In response to market conditions where the price of titanium dioxide has fluctuated significantly in recent years, Dow Chemical has recently developed a technology that can replace titanium dioxide or a technology that enhances the hiding function of titanium dioxide—EVOQUE pre-composite polymer technology. This technology helps to improve the distribution of titanium dioxide particles in paint and light scattering efficiency, increase the hiding power of titanium dioxide, and reduce the amount of titanium dioxide used in coating formulations by 20%, achieving the same or even better results at a lower cost. . The technology also has barrier properties such as improved paint stain resistance and corrosion resistance.
