Opacity Pigment™ FP-510
by FP-Pigments
Opacity Pigment™ FP-510 by FP-Pigments acts as an opacifier. It can be used in a wide range of plastics processing equipment including pipe- & profile extrusion and film calendaring. The unique engineered structure improves the efficiency of existing titanium dioxide pigment and enhances its performance, allowing the formulator to optimize the product performance and reduce raw material costs.
- It possesses weatherability and aesthetic properties which exhibit a good initial color and excellent color stability.
- It is recommended for rigid & flexible PVC as a partial replacement for TiO2 pigment and can easily be incorporated in standard compounding operations.
- The recommended replacement level is between 10-20%.
- Opacity Pigment™ FP-510 is fully REACH compliant.
Opacity Pigment™ FP-550
by FP-Pigments
Opacity Pigment™ FP-550 by FP-Pigments acts as an opacifier. It can easily be incorporated in polyolefin masterbatches using normal premix and extrusion operations. It is suitable for plastics and end applications including blown films and injection molding. The unique engineered structure improves the efficiency of existing titanium dioxide pigments and enhances their performance, allowing the formulator to optimize the product performance and reduce raw material costs.
- It is designed to provide optimal optical properties enabling partial replacement of TiO2 depending upon the dilution and film thickness of the end use product.
- The recommended replacement level is between 10-15%.
- It maintains opacity & film quality and provides high brightness & low yellowness.
- Its lower tinting strength provides advantage in colored plastics where chroma and hue can be maintained at lower colored pigment addition levels.
- Opacity Pigment™ FP-550 is fully REACH compliant and approved from FDA & JHOSPA ([B]NJ-36699).

Opacity Pigment™ FP-440
by FP-Pigments
Opacity Pigment™ FP-440 by FP-Pigments acts as an opacifier. It is developed using patented technology to produce the most effective balance of spaced TiO2 and entrapped air within a precipitated calcium carbonate shell. It can offer a similar performance to TiO2 at an optimized replacement ratio but without the price volatility.
- It is used as a suitable, partial replacement for TiO2 in PVC profiles and pipes, while maintaining optical- & weathering properties, enhancing brightness and showing excellent color stability.
- Opacity Pigment™ FP-440 is used in rigid and flexible PVC plastics.
POLYWHITE® P 80560
by LyondellBasell
POLYWHITE® P 80560 by LyondellBasell is a white masterbatch to opacify bioriented polypropylene films produced on blown or stenter equipment. It contains 60 percent of a finely dispersed white pigment in a homopolymer PP carrier. POLYWHITE® P 80560 is mainly designed to be used in the core of CPP/BOPP films. In case of three layers plain films structures, it can be applied in the skin of pearlized films to increase the opacity.
