What is Black Titania?
Black Titania
Titanium Oxide Black (PBK-535) is available in Micro and Nano grades for black-pigment formulation review.
Technical owner: Aurexene Materials Engineering Team · Last updated: 2026-07-26
What It Is Not
- Black Titania is not conventional white titanium dioxide pigment; grade-specific properties must be selected from the PBK-535 Micro or Nano data.
When Not to Use It
- Do not use Black Titania when high visible whiteness, color neutrality, or the optical behavior of conventional TiO2 pigment is required.
