A titanium dioxide pigment slurry containing from about 70 to about 80 percent by weight solids content is provided by dewatering, at superatmospheric pressure, a highly dispersed pigment slurry containing from about 20 to about 50 percent by weight of an untreated, nonflocculated titanium dioxide pigment and which slurry has a pH of below about 4.0 or above about 8.0 to produce a wet filter cake. The wet filter cake is reslurried in the presence of a dispersing agent. The high solids content slurry preferably is prepared from rutile titanium dioxide pigment. |
