Titanium dioxide

摘要

The invention provides a composition imparting UV protective capability comprising an effect coated particulate material having a substantially rutile crystal habit and an average particle size greater than or equal to about 0.5 µm dispersed in a medium at a concentration within a range of about 1% by volume to about 40% by volume, based on the total volume of composition. The composition may be coloured or non-coloured and applied onto one or more surfaces of a substrate to provide UV light protection without also increasing UV light activated photocatalytic effects which are generally observed.
