Common questions

Can SEMITI 2160 substitute Ti-Pure R-706 in outdoor PVC window frame production?+
SEMITI 2160 is the better choice for outdoor PVC — it is specifically engineered for PVC stabilizer compatibility (Ca/Zn / Sn systems). Ti-Pure R-706 is optimized for industrial coatings dispersion, not PVC compounding chemistry. Use SEMITI 2160 for PVC; use SEMITI 706 for coatings.
How does SEMITI 2160 pricing compare to Ti-Pure R-706?+
Both are durable-grade chloride rutile at premium pricing. SEMITI 2160 typically lands lower than Ti-Pure R-706 in Asian markets. The relevant comparison for coatings buyers is SEMITI 706 vs Ti-Pure R-706; for PVC buyers, SEMITI 2160 is the right grade regardless of price vs R-706.
When should I use SEMITI 706 vs SEMITI 2160 for my application?+
Use SEMITI 706 for industrial protective coatings, coil coatings, automotive refinish, and architectural exterior paint. Use SEMITI 2160 for outdoor PVC profile, window frames, siding, vinyl decking, and fence boards. The surface treatment chemistry differs — PVC stabilizer compatibility of 2160 is the key differentiator.
