Abstract:

Disclosed herein are pigments comprising mostly rutile TiO, wherein the mostly rutile TiOconsists essentially of low abrasion TiOparticles produced by introducing a metal halide into the chloride process. Further disclosed are ink, can coatings, fibers, papers, and plastics comprising the pigment. Also disclosed herein are pigments comprising the low abrasion TiOpigments comprising TiOparticles which have been further heat treated at a temperature of at least about 800 C. in an oxidizing atmosphere for a time period of at least about 1 hour.

A46B 1/00

US Classification:

528271, 528367, 151671

Abstract:

The present invention discloses opaque and white monofilaments that retain tensile strength even after exposure to high levels of UV light. Monofilaments of the present invention do not become brittle even after exposure to the equivalent of three to six months of Florida sun. Monofilaments of the present invention can be useful in brushes, filtration media, monofilament fabrics, synthetic hair for wigs, doll hair, and other applications where monofilaments can be used that are stored or sold in an environment where there is a substantial degree of exposure to the sun.

Appl. No.:

7/404730

Inventors:

Dwight A. Holtzen - Newark DE
Austin H. Reid - Newark DE

Assignee:

E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company - Wilmington DE

International Classification:

C09C 136

US Classification:

106436

Abstract:

An improved inorganic pigment (e. g. , TiO. sub. 2), process for treating such pigment and polymer (e. g. , polyethylene, polypropylene or polystyrene) incorporating such pigment wherein the inorganic pigment is coated with maleic, malonic, benzoic, fumaric, or phthalic acid or mixtures thereof. The coated pigments exhibit excellent resistance to polymer yellowing or discoloration and do not appear to degrade polymer properties.
