BLANC FIXE MICRO PLUS

BLANC FIXE micro® PLUS synthetic barium sulfate is largely free of impurities (e.g. quartz) with specially adjusted surface and is produced from highly purified solutions in a defined growth process. The product is resistant to acids and alkalis, insoluble in water and organic solvents.
It is color neutral due to low refractive index (1.64 of BaSO4), has extremely narrow particle size range for high gloss specifications and high brilliance in colored systems. The low specific surface area (<5 m2/g) and low abrasiveness (due to low Mohs hardness of ca. 3) make BLANC FIXE micro® PLUS synthetic barium sulfate easy to wet and disperse. The Benefits of the Product Include: – Acting as spacers for TiO2 and color pigments and providing stabilization against flocculation, it is possible to achieve higher solid contents in dispersions – Light fastness and weather resistant – Assisting gloss adjustment, rheology control and enhancing mechanical properties
