TINOX® R-2290 is specifically engineered for plastic applications, offering Class A weatherability, exceptional opacity (Reynolds ≥2000), and a superior blue undertone (SCX ≥4.4). Its unique Al/Si/Organic treatment provides excellent dispersion in all major polymer systems while maintaining low volatility and outstanding heat resistance.
Key Applications: Interior trim, instrument panels, exterior mirror housings, under-hood components
R-2290 Advantages:
Recommended Formulation (PP Compound):
Polypropylene (PP) | 85-92% |
TINOX R-2290 | 4-8% |
Talc (reinforcement) | 5-10% |
Additives (UV, stabilizers) | 1-2% |
Processing Tip: Use melt temperatures of 210-230°C for optimal dispersion in PP compounds.
Key Applications: Laptop cases, smartphone housings, TV bezels, appliance panels
R-2290 Advantages:
Recommended Masterbatch Formulation:
Carrier Resin (ABS or PS) | 50-60% |
TINOX R-2290 | 40-50% |
Dispersing Agents | 1-2% |
Processing Tip: For ABS applications, maintain screw speed at 60-70% of maximum to prevent shear heating.
Key Applications: Food packaging, pharmaceutical blister packs, cosmetic containers
R-2290 Advantages:
Recommended Let-Down Ratios:
Application | Masterbatch Concentration | Final Product Loading |
Thin Films (<50μm) | 50% R-2290 | 1-2% |
Rigid Containers | 40% R-2290 | 3-5% |
Thick Sheets (>1mm) | 30% R-2290 | 5-8% |
Processing Tip: For blown films, optimize bubble stability by maintaining melt temperatures between 190-210°C.
