Adhesive / sealant manufacturer
TiO2 for Adhesive & Sealant Formulators
White adhesives and sealants use 5–15% TiO2 for opacity. SEMITI 996 / 902 with proper surface treatment matches sealant chemistry.
Typical volume
50–800 t/year
Qualification cycle
4–8 weeks
Business context
Adhesive and sealant formulators — Henkel (Loctite), Sika, 3M Adhesives, Wacker — produce silicone sealants, polyurethane structural adhesives, hot-melt adhesives, anaerobic adhesives. TiO2 provides whiteness and UV stability.
Procurement challenges
- 01Silicone sealant compatibility (no Si-OH antagonism)
- 02PU adhesive moisture compatibility
- 03Long shelf life stability in formulated product
- 04Outdoor sealant UV durability
