SEMITI A100 vs Anhui Annada BA01-01

SEMITI A100 matches the BA01-01 Chinese reference anatase with tighter Pb/Cd specification for EU paper export.

Anhui Annada BA01-01 is the highest-volume Chinese sulfate-anatase grade — universal use in paper, ink, fiber, and rubber. SEMITI A100 is positioned as the EU-export-ready alternative with tighter heavy-metal specification.

Common questions

Can SEMITI A100 substitute Anhui BA01-01 directly in paper, ink, and fiber applications?+
Yes — direct substitution. Both are sulfate-process anatase with identical tinting strength (≥1700). The differences are in upper specification limits: SEMITI A100 has tighter Pb (≤5 ppm vs ≤10 ppm) and Cd (≤1 ppm vs ≤3 ppm) — which matters for EU export but not for domestic Chinese use.
Is SEMITI A100 more expensive than Anhui BA01-01?+
SEMITI A100 commands a modest premium over BA01-01 reflecting tighter heavy-metal QC specification. The premium is modest relative to the cost difference between anatase and chloride rutile. For EU export paper mills, the premium is justified by regulatory compliance.
When should I use SEMITI A100 vs BA01-01?+
Use SEMITI A100 when your end-market is EU or UK (strict REACH heavy-metal limits), pharmaceutical or food-contact paper, or any application requiring tighter color spec (b* ≤1.5 vs ≤1.7). Use BA01-01 for domestic Chinese paper, ink, and rubber applications where the relaxed spec and lower cost are the right trade-off.
