Abstract
Abstract Pigmentary titanium dioxide, especially titanium dioxide containing coreacted aluminum and silicon, is heat treated and then given a hydrous metal oxide coating, e.g., an alumina and silica coating. The resulting pigment has good chalk resistance and good retention of optical properties, such as gloss, color and tint efficiency.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 6
Claim 1
Independent Claim
82 words
In the method of treating raw pigmentary titanium dioxide containing from about 1 to about 2.5 weight percent cooxidized alumina and from about 0.3 to about 0.75 weight percent cooxidized silica by coating said pigment with hydrous alumina and hydrous silica, the improvement which comprises increasing the photolytic stability of said pigment by heating said raw pigment at from about 600* to about 650* C. for from about 20 to about 30 minutes before coating said pigment with said hydrous metal oxide.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
