Abstract

The relation between the surface chemical composition and the stability of aqueous dispersions of titanium dioxide pigments was studied. The stability of aqueous slurries of pigments was assessed by measuring both adsorption isotherms of sodium polyacrylate (SPA) on TiO2 surfaces and viscosity. Electrophoretic mobility and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy provided the necessary surface chemical compositions of TiO2 pigments.
