TITANIUM DIOXIDE PIGMENT PRODUCTION PROCESS Russian patent published in 2008 - IPC C01G23/07 C09C1/36 C09C3/04 C09C3/08 C09C3/12 

FIELD: varnish-and-paint industry.

SUBSTANCE: process of producing titanium dioxide pigment according to chloride technology comprises oxidation of titanium tetrachloride with oxygen or oxygen-containing gas in plasmachemical reactor followed by cooling of reaction products in tempering chamber and subsequent multistep fine grinding of intermediate product, titanium dioxide, by way of affection with supersonic gas flow at 100-500°C and ratio of gas mass intake to titanium dioxide mass intake = 0.2. In the first step of titanium dioxide fine grinding, treatment of titanium dioxide is performed with a dry gas supplemented by vapor of organic or organosilicon modifier having in its molecule at least one of the following functional groups: -OH, -NH₂, NH, SH at mass intake of modifier representing 0.1-2.0% of the mass intake of titanium dioxide.

EFFECT: improved quality of titanium dioxide pigment and simplified process of production thereof.
