PRODUCTS

From a black mineral ore comethe colors that light up our lives.

TAROX Synthetic Iron Oxide
With a high purity and uniform quality, thisproduct s features are high brightness andsaturation in pale and deep colors. In addition tolow oil absorption and high dispersibility, it isdrawing attention as a high-grade raw material
due to its great tinting strength and coverage,
good durability and non-toxicity.

We produce white pigmented titanium oxide from the black ilmenite ore.
From the large quantity of iron sulfate created at the time of titaniumoxide production, we bring forth a synthetic iron oxide that undergoes

change into a variety of colors, like reds and yellows. We are fascinatedCoatings, printer ink, plastics, ferrite, magnetic toner,by the world of color ushered in by this black mineral ore.

and cosmetics, among others.

KRONOS Titanium Oxide

Iron Oxide Pearl Pigment

Extremely stable chemically and thermally,
KRONOS titanium oxide possesses a high degreeof whiteness. It has applications as a pigment inall ﬁelds relating to color, including chemicalﬁbers, printer inks and a variety of coatings.

As a result of having a refractive index of
approximately 3.0, this pigment has a highparticle surface light reﬂectivity, and exhibits highquality characteristics as a material that gives asparkle to resin. These sheeted particles havegood dispersibility, and are harmless, extremely
stable thermally, and have a high-gradeorientation within the coated ﬁlm.

Applications
Paper manufacturing, titanium condensers,rubber, printer ink, coatings, plastics,
artist paints, crayons, ceramics,

Ultraﬁne Titanium Oxide

Iron sulfate

We have the two forms of anatase and rutile, withthe former being used predominantly inelectrophotographic toner additives, and thelatter used in UV protection cosmetics. As a toneradditive, it has a high level of ﬂuidity and theeﬀect of adjusting static charge. We provide a
range of products for cosmetics applications,from those that have UV protection and hightransparency to those with high quality textures.

Iron sulfate is a by-product of the titanium oxide
production process. It well-reputed as a material
friendly to the environment and is used as a
coagulant in water treatment and as a soil
conditioner.
Applications
Coagulants for water treatment,
corrosion control agents of seawater cooling heat exchangers

Applicationsat power plants, and soil conditioners, among others.

UV protection cosmetics, UV protection ﬁlm,
electophotgraphic toner additives,ﬂip-ﬂop coatings, and catalysts, among others.

Titanium Oxide for Cosmetics
Silky Touch Titanium Oxide ST-700 SeriesThis series has moderate coverage and UV blocking properties, andis extremely smooth to the touch. The availability of various particle
sizes allows for selection according to intended application.
Ultraﬁne Titanium Oxide for Cosmetics ST-400 Series
The beneﬁt of this series is UV blocking and high transparency.
Selection according to intended application is possible with theexistence of brands of varying particle size and shape, as well asbrands with a wide variety of surface ﬁnishes.

Conductive Inorganic Oxide
Possessing an extremely high degree of whiteness, conductive
inorganic oxide is extremely stable chemically and physically due tobeing an inorganic oxide. Moreover, it has the characteristic ofrelatively little change in resistance due to humidity. Making use of
these attributes, it has expanding applications in anti-static coating, forexample in clean rooms, conductive ﬁber, electrophotographic tonerand carrier static charge adjustment, and for resistance adjustment.
Applications
Antic-static coating, conductive material of anti-static resin, conductive material forelectro-static coating, and electrophotographic toner additives, among others.
