15 confirmed competitor corporate domains are screened for this technology.
One technology platform. Multiple formulation systems.
TYNOX selection begins with the actual binder or polymer, incumbent TiO2 grade and loading, filler package, application process and measurable pass/fail criteria.
01
Paint & coating formulators
Architectural, industrial, automotive, marine and metallic coatings
Screen X-Paque or X-Pure inside the real waterborne or solventborne formulation when the project targets TiO2 efficiency, opacity, porosity, gloss, surface smoothness or total formulation cost.
Formulations to screen
Interior and exterior architectural paints, primers and emulsions
Industrial maintenance, protective and general metal coatings
Automotive OEM, refinish, metallic and transportation finishes
Marine coatings and other high-coverage white or pastel systems
Performance gates
Contrast ratio, hiding power, whiteness and tint strength
Gloss, DOI, surface smoothness and porosity
Scrub, rub, adhesion, weathering and water resistance
PVC/CPVC balance, viscosity, dispersion and cost per finished gallon
02
Ink formulators
Flexographic, gravure, reverse, lamination and surface white inks
Evaluate the technology in the actual resin, solvent or water system and proofing method. White-ink economics matter only after opacity, printability, lamination and resistance requirements are held.
Formulations to screen
Flexible-packaging white inks for clear and metallized film
Flexographic and gravure surface-print systems
Reverse-print and lamination inks for packaging structures
Selected screen, decorative and industrial white inks
Performance gates
Opacity at target film weight and print density
Viscosity, dispersion, transfer, resolubility and press stability
Gloss, rub resistance, blocking and adhesion
Lamination bond, color-over-white performance and cost per printed area
03
Polymer compounders
White masterbatch, thermoplastics, film, sheet, pipe and PVC profiles
Start with the polymer, TiO2 loading and conversion process. Any optimization must preserve dispersion, whiteness, opacity, mechanics, heat history and line performance at the intended production rate.
Formulations to screen
PE and PP white masterbatch, injection molding and extrusion
Flexible and rigid PVC compounds, profiles, pipe and sheet
White film, packaging, molded parts and engineered compounds
Consumer, construction and industrial plastic products
Performance gates
Opacity, whiteness, undertone and color consistency
Dispersion, filter pressure, lacing and surface finish
Melt flow, torque, output rate and thermal stability
Mechanical properties, weathering and cost per finished part
04
Industrial formulators
Gloves, rubber and selected white industrial formulations
TYNOX publicly identifies glove and industrial customer segments. These projects require system-specific screening because cure chemistry, porosity, surface appearance, film integrity and resistance properties can change with reformulation.
Formulations to screen
White or light-colored gloves and dipped-product systems
Selected rubber and elastomer compounds
Industrial surface, sealing and protective formulations
Products where porosity, whiteness or surface durability is measurable
Performance gates
Whiteness, opacity, porosity and visual uniformity
Tensile, elongation, tear and film integrity
Rub, abrasion, chemical and aging resistance
Processing stability, cure behavior and cost per finished unit
Technology focus
What a serious TYNOX trial should measure.
Optimization is not a blanket percentage-reduction claim. A credible result compares a controlled reformulation against the current commercial standard.
01
TiO2 efficiency
Evaluate lower titanium-dioxide demand while holding the required finished-product performance.
02
Opacity & light scattering
Improve the distribution and orientation of TiO2 particles to support stronger light scattering.
03
Porosity control
Study the arrangement of TiO2 and fillers to reduce porosity and improve formulation structure.
04
Gloss & surface quality
Evaluate gloss, surface smoothness, brightness and rub resistance with the full specification in view.
05
Cost-in-use
Measure total formulation economics after technical performance is demonstrated—not raw-material price alone.
Technical qualification
Start with the current formula—not a generic sample request.
Define the systemBinder or polymer, incumbent TiO2, fillers, loading, process and annual demand.
Set the success criteriaOpacity, whiteness, gloss, rub, porosity, weathering, processing and cost-in-use.

TYNOX technical answers
What formulators ask first.
What is the TYNOX platform designed to do?
TYNOX gives formulators a controlled way to study TiO2 efficiency, opacity, porosity, gloss and total cost-in-use in the product they actually manufacture. Product-level details require verified access.
Does TYNOX replace titanium dioxide one-for-one?
No. TYNOX is evaluated through a controlled reformulation using the actual TiO2, binder or polymer, fillers, process and required finished-product properties.
Which markets can evaluate TYNOX?
Potential markets include paints and coatings, printing inks, plastics, masterbatch, PVC and selected industrial or rubber applications. Final selection requires technical review.
Qualification required
Manufacturer statements are screening inputs, not a guarantee of a fixed TiO2 reduction or finished-product performance. Customers must validate the selected TYNOX product in the actual formulation, process and end use. Documentation, regulatory status, territory, supply and commercial terms are confirmed for each project.
Application lab · technical + procurement
How to qualify TYNOX TiO2 optimization technology.
Controlled reformulation studies for opacity, TiO2 efficiency, porosity, gloss, surface durability and finished-product economics.
Why request a sample
A sample answers the questions a datasheet cannot.
Optimization technology is not a universal one-for-one TiO2 replacement; performance depends on the incumbent TiO2, binder or polymer, fillers, pigment volume concentration and process.
A disciplined sample ladder shows whether improved particle arrangement or porosity control translates into real opacity, gloss and durability in the customer’s formula.
The business case is valid only after technical performance is held, so procurement needs measured cost per passing formula—not a headline replacement percentage.
What to send first
Better intake creates a faster, more useful trial.
Complete current formula on a mass and volume basis, including TiO2, extenders, binder, dispersants and total solids
Current opacity, whiteness, gloss, porosity, rub, viscosity, durability and cost baselines
Pigment volume concentration or polymer loading, application thickness and production process
Properties that may not move, plus the customer’s minimum performance and statistical acceptance limits
Controlled comparison
Use one baseline, one written plan and measurable pass/fail gates.
01
Lock the incumbent as Formula A and calculate its mass, volume, solids and cost baseline.
02
Prepare a conservative three-point optimization ladder recommended for the specific TYNOX platform; rebalance on both mass and volume rather than subtracting TiO2 blindly.
03
Hold application thickness and test conditions constant. Measure opacity first, then rheology, gloss, porosity, scrub/rub, adhesion, durability and process response.
04
Repeat the winning formula, age it, verify a second raw-material lot and confirm on the production line before calculating annualized savings.
Procurement gate
Qualify the supply package, not only the chemistry.
Buy only against the exact qualified platform and formula; do not substitute among optimization grades without technical requalification.
Request current TDS/SDS, COA, manufacturing origin, packaging, storage guidance and change-notification commitment.
Build the savings model from the approved formula and production yield, then stress-test TiO2 and TYNOX price changes.
Set a supply plan for launch volume, safety stock, lead time and the incumbent fallback during the validation period.
Sample ladder
Request enough material for a decision—not just one attractive result.
Stage 1 — enough for Formula A plus a three-point optimization ladder, duplicate drawdowns or parts and retained sample.
Stage 2 — a second lot for aging, resistance, repeatability and the full product specification.
Stage 3 — production trial quantity calculated from the validated formula and enough runs to test normal line variation.
Decision ruleDo not approve the economics until the same formula passes opacity, color, rheology, surface integrity, durability and production repeatability.
Methods named here are common starting references, not automatic specifications. Use the customer's current approved method, current manufacturer documents and written regulatory requirements for the exact grade, plant, formula and end use.
