Properties:

Lithopone is a white pigment composed of a mixture of barium sulfate (28 - 30%)

and zinc sulfide (68 - 70%) with trace amounts of zinc oxide.

Applications:

It is produced by precipitation through filtering, heating and quenching works

Lithopone has mostly been replaced by titanium dioxide which is more durable

but it is much cheaper. It is used as a base for lake pigment and used as a inert

pigment for paint, ink and cosmetics as well as in a large range of applications

in plastic industry , It is used as a filler in paper, leather, and linoleum.
