1 Ti-Pure TITANIUM DIOXIDE DETERMINATION OF PARTICLE SIZE DISTRIBUTION OF RPS ( Horiba (LA-900) Procedure) METHOD: T WP 1
2 TITANIUM DIOXIDE (Ti-Pure ) Determination of Particle Size Distribution of RPS ('Horiba' (LA-900) Procedure) I. Principle The particle size of titanium dioxide is measured in dilute aqueous dispersions with a HORIBA LA-900. The `Horiba' uses Mie scattering theory to measure `equivalent spherical diameter' as a function of % Transmission and scattered light. The size of the particle determines where the light is scattered. Therefore, by measuring the % Transmission, Front Scatter, Side Scatter, and Back Scatter the size of the particle can be calculated. The refractive index of the buffer and the particle and primary constants relating to particle size. These constants are supplied and are called Relative Refractive Index. II. Applicability A. General This method is used to measure the particle size of insoluble materials in the range of 0.04 to 1000 microns. B. Specific This method will measure several quantities used to characterize titanium dioxide pigment. The instrument records the cumulative % of the total mass in each size increment. The particle size is usually represented as calculated quantities: D50 - the median diameter in microns GSD - the geometric standard deviation is defined as the square root of Coarse Tail (D) divided by Fine Tail D. Use method T WP to determine PSD parameters for RPD Vantage. (Dry Finished Product) III. Limitations The material must be dispersed in the liquid medium, but not soluble in it. It measures the diameters as `equivalent spherical diameter', i.e., 2
3 the diameter the particles would be if they were spheres. In fact, titanium dioxide particles are somewhat acicular (needle like crystals). The refractive index of the material must be known. IV. Sensitivity Precision and Accuracy A. Sensitivity No data is available. B. Precision 1. Single Operator _ The average analysis (X), standard deviation (s) and 95% confidence limits (95% CL) established for the single operator precision of the method were as follows: _ X s 95% CL RPS Vantage D50,um ± RPS Vantage GSD ± The above data were calculated from 10 replicate analyses of one sample performed by one technician over a period of 7 days. 2. Multiple Operator _ The average analysis (X), standard deviation (s) and 95% confidence limits (95% CL) established for the multiple operator precision of the method were as follows: _ X s 95% CL RPS Vantage D50, um ± RPS Vantage GSD ± The above data were calculated from 40 replicate analyses of one sample performed by 4 technicians in Edge Moor Control laboratory over a period of 30 days. 3
4 C. Accuracy No study has been made; however, results have been satisfactory based upon experience. V. Special Apparatus (Equivalent apparatus may be substituted) 1.

Bring up level to 200 ml with deionized water. 4. Mix with magnetic stirrer for 30 minutes. 5. Pour through a 325 mesh screen into a labeled sample container. Entire operations should last about 45 minutes. 6. If the sample will not be run immediately, place in a beaker and stir on a magnetic stirrer. 7
8 f. Operating Procedure 1. Click on the word MEASURE in the upper left corner of the screen. This will put you into the Measure screen. If already in this screen, go to the next Step. 2. Click on the SET circle in the FEED box. This feeds 200 ml of buffer to the instrument reservoir. At the first of the shift and at any time the machine has been left idle with distilled water in the sample chamber, the chamber must be drained and rinsed before filling. This is done by clicking ON DRAIN ALL and then RINSE. The feed portion of this operation is timed. It is supposed to feed 150 ml of "RINSE" and 200 ml of "FEED SET". If it does not, adjust the rotameter on the reservoir, rinse or fill again. Keep doing this until the correct amount is pumped over. 3. When FEED is completed, click on the blue box for AGITATION (the reservoir stirrer will come on) then click on the blue CIRCULATION Box (the circulation pump will come on). 4. Insure that the door to the optical cell is tightly closed. 5. After the baseline (blue horizontal line at bottom) in the CHANNEL Box has settled down, and there are no red lines in the box on the right, click on the box named BLANK. The instrument will then blank the baseline. Do not add sample until the Blank routine is complete and the instrument has settled down. When this is complete, the T% He-Ne: (just above the CHANNEL Box) should read 100%. NOTE: If it reads anything other than 100%, repeat Steps 2-5 until the T% He-Ne reads 100%. 6. Remove ~85 µl of sample from the beaker and adjust the %TRANSMISSION to 85% ± 1%. 8
9 NOTE: The amount of sample will vary some with the type of pipette, calibration of the pipette and the grade of material being run. Since the % Transmission will be adjusted for each individual sample, the amount of sample being drawn into the pipette is not critical. If you have a %Transmission of less than 84%, dump the sample by performing steps Then start with Step 6 again. 7. Add sample to the reservoir until the T% He-Ne: reads 85% ± 1%. The green bar down the left side on the CHANNEL Box will move down, the Baseline will change and the aim Box will show red lines. 8. Click on the box named MEASURE. The instrument will now measure the sample. 9. When MEASURE is completed, the agitation and circulation will stop and the screen will change back to the Graph screen with the sample graph on the screen. 10. Click on CONDITION, then on the D-CONDITION Box. Move the arrow to the sample Name Box and click once. Type the sample name into the Sample Name Box. 11. Click on OK. You will return to the Measure/Display Screen. 12. Click on FILE. The Measure File Dialogue Box will appear. Make sure the ASCii FILE SAVE Box is checked. 13. Place the mouse arrow in the FILE: Box and click once, then press the BACKSPACE Key. The FILE: Box should now be completely blank. 14. Type in the file name (no more than eight (8) characters). 15.
