FP-Pigments

WEATHERING AND DURABILITY

The effect of TiO2 pigment on the weathering stability of a coating or plastic is based on two processes, photo-chemical and photo-catalytic attack. Both processes cause the breakdown of the resin/binder which in turn causes several other effects to develop. Changing the TiO2 type or amount can have a significant effect on the weathering stability and durability of a coating or plastic. FP-Pigments have made several durability evaluations, both natural and accelerated, to determine that the use of our Opacity Pigments™ has no significant effect on this important exterior property.
