Abstract:
The present invention relates to TiO.sub.2 pigments having TiO.sub.2 particles with substantially discrete inorganic particles dispersed on the surfaces of the TiO.sub.2 particles. Suitable inorganic particles include silica, calcium carbonate, and mixtures thereof. The substantially discrete inorganic particles have an average diameter size within the range of about 5 to about 50 nm and are dispersed on the surfaces of the TiO.sub.2 particles in an amount of less than 20 wt. % based on total pigment weight. This invention also includes coating compositions containing these pigments and processes for making these pigments.

Abstract:
A structured composite pigmentary material comprises composite particles consisting of an association of at least one titanium dioxide particle and at least one non-film-forming organic polymer particle wherein the particles are held in association as a result of a positive surface charge on the titanium dioxide particles and a negative surface charge on the polymeric particles, the composition of the composite being such that the ratio by volume of polymeric particles to titanium dioxide particles is in the range 0.3:1 to 0.6:1. An aqueous paint composition and a method of preparing the structured composite pigmentary material are described.
