Rutile
Sale of RUTILE by CMMP
CMMP offers high-quality Rutile, a mineral used in various applications, including the production of titanium dioxide (TiO2) as a pigment and for coating welding electrodes. The Rutile supplied by CMMP is available in calcined or non-calcined form, primarily for the welding electrode sector. Rutile is valued for its high TiO2 content, purity, physical-chemical stability, and optical properties.
Which domains use RUTILE ?
RUTILE is used in
- the production of TITANIUM DIOXIDE TiO2 (pigment use and titanium production)
- the production of WELDING ELECTRODES (coating)
CMMP supplies CALCINED or NON CALCINED RUTILE mainly for the WELDING ELECTRODES sector.
What are the properties of RUTILE ?
RUTILE is particularly interesting for its high content of titanium dioxide TiO2. It is therefore a very pure mineral with interesting properties such as its physico-chemical stability and refractoriness which allow it to be widely used in the coating of welding electrodes. It also has excellent optical properties. Along with illmenite, it is one of the main raw materials for the production of TiO2, a very pure white pigment (colour index PW6) widely used in industry. TiO2 itself is used as a raw material to obtain titanium metal.
What is RUTILE ?
RUTILE is a natural mineral composed mainly of titanium dioxide. It is the most stable form of titanium dioxide. It is extracted from the same raw material as zircon and illmenite.
Rutile is a crystalline mineral that occurs in the form of prismatic crystals or needles. It is typically black or brown in color, but can also be transparent or reddish in color. Rutile is primarily used in the industry for its high content of titanium dioxide (TiO2), which is a widely used compound in various applications.
