XM-BA13 Industrial Barium Sulphate, 2000 Mesh and 95% Minimum Content for Paint, Coating and Plastic Trials

For a paint, coating or plastic comparison, this XM-BA13 grade provides a 2000 mesh fineness designation and minimum barium sulphate content of 95%. Its white-powder appearance and whiteness requirement of at least 93% give additional criteria for a defined formulation trial.

Separate the 2000 mesh grade from a size curve

The mesh designation is useful when the comparison uses an agreed fineness basis. Request the measured distribution and method where particle size affects the actual process, rather than converting 2000 mesh into an assumed median diameter or claiming a complete distribution.

Match chemical and optical acceptance separately

The minimum 95% content concerns the proposed sulfate's composition. Whiteness of at least 93% needs an agreed optical reference and method, so the two percentages should remain independent when deciding which powder criteria are relevant to the intended paint or plastic.

pH comparison

Use the 7±0.5 range with a confirmed preparation and measurement procedure.

Ignition criterion

The 0.74% loss-on-ignition value needs its applicable test temperature and conditions.

Material identification

Confirm the actual production route, impurity limits and current product-specific safety documentation for XM-BA13.

Approve XM-BA13 in the selected matrix

Use the actual paint binder, powder-coating system or plastic resin to determine the proposed material's processing and appearance result. A white mineral description does not establish interchangeable performance across these systems, and a certificate requirement needs a current document with the relevant scope.

Set the assay, mesh basis and optical criteria before requesting the representative sample. The formulation trial can then establish whether this particular XM-BA13 specification meets the project, with acceptance based on the measured material rather than a broad equivalence claim.
