Why is XT-208 barium sulfate considered a "cost-reducing" choice for exterior wall paint formulas?

In the field of outdoor architectural coatings (such as exterior wall paints) that pursue a balance between high quality and cost-effectiveness, the selection of fillers is of vital importance. A product that combines excellent whiteness, stable performance and outstanding workability can significantly enhance the final performance of the coating. For this reason, we recommend to you the natural ultrafine barium sulfate XT-208 (800 mesh).

1. The essential advantage derived from the mineral source
The XT-208 model selects high-quality primary ore. Its core value lies in:
(1) Outstanding whiteness (90-94%
High whiteness provides a pure base color for exterior wall paint. Whether it is for preparing bright colored paint or light-colored paint with strict requirements for whiteness, it can ensure that the color is bright, pure and does not turn yellow, significantly enhancing the final decorative effect and covering power of the paint film.

(2) The particle size is relatively uniform and the color phase is stable
The fineness of 800 mesh and uniform particle size distribution ensure that it can be stably and evenly dispersed in the coating system. This not only brings excellent batch consistency, effectively avoiding the problem of color difference during production and application, but also provides uniform texture and stable optical performance for the paint film.

(3) It has excellent stability and liquidity
Good chemical stability: It can withstand complex acidic and alkaline environments outdoors, enhancing the weather resistance and durability of the paint film.
Good physical fluidity: Its low oil absorption property enables it to effectively reduce the viscosity of the system in the formula, improve the leveling property of the coating during construction, make the construction smoother and the paint film flatter.

2. Applicable to "outdoor powder", achieving a balance between performance and economy
(1) Optimize costs and enhance performance

With its high whiteness and excellent space-filling capacity, XT-208 barium sulfate can efficiently work in synergy with titanium dioxide in formulations. While ensuring covering power and whiteness, it helps formulators achieve better cost control, making it an ideal choice for creating high-performance and cost-effective exterior wall coatings.

(2) Enhance the paint film quality and extend its service life
Its stable chemical properties and hard particle characteristics can effectively enhance the compactness, wear resistance and anti-powdering ability of the paint film, providing more durable and reliable protection for the exterior walls of buildings and resisting harsh outdoor environments such as sun exposure and rain.

(3) Improve the construction experience and stabilize the quality output
Excellent fluidity ensures the smoothness of the product during the production and construction processes, reduces production resistance and enhances construction efficiency. Stable hue and quality are the solid foundation for coating brands to ensure the long-term consistency of their products and customer satisfaction.

3. Why choose our XT-208 natural barium sulfate?
We insist on using high-quality primary mineral sources to control quality from the very beginning. The XT-208 model is not merely a filler; it strikes a balance among the multi-dimensional demands of outdoor coatings, including whiteness, stability, workability and cost.

Recommended applications
It is especially suitable for medium and high-end exterior latex paints, texture coatings, protective engineering paints, etc. that take into account the whiteness, weather resistance and cost comprehensively.
