Inorganic pigment Lide powder, also known as zinc antimony white, is a mixed crystal of zinc sulfide and barium sulfate. It has many unique and excellent properties. Lide powder products form a series of products, such as high ZnS type, apparent treatment type, water dispersion. Type, light fastness, color type, etc., play an important role in industrial and agricultural production and daily life. Mainly used in coatings, paints, thermoplastics, thermosets, paper, etc., can replace some rutile by surface treatment or Ti0 2 coating.
Lithopone B301, Lithopone B311 powder, brilliant white pigment used in paints, inks, leather, paper, linoleum, and face powder. It was developed in the 1870s as a substitute or supplement for lead carbonate (white lead), to overcome its drawbacks of toxicity, poor weathering, and darkening in atmospheres that contain sulfur compounds. Lithopone B301, Lithopone B311 powder is an insoluble mixture of barium sulfate and zinc sulfide that precipitates upon mixing solutions of barium sulfide and zinc sulfate. The precipitate is recovered by filtration, then calcined (roasted) at temperatures above 600° C (1,112° F). Although Lithopone B301, Lithopone B311 powder has been replaced in many applications by titanium dioxide, it is still widely used in a number of products, such as water paints.
