Rutile Sand
Rutile is a mineral composed primarily of titanium dioxide, TiO2. Rutile is the most common natural form of TiO2. Predominantly used as a raw material for chloride titanium dioxide pigment manufacture. Also used in titanium metal production and welding rod fluxes.
The main uses for Rutile are the manufacture of refractory ceramic, as a pigment, and for the production of titanium metal. It is used in paints, plastics, paper, foods, and other applications that call for a bright white color.
