Contents

A white pigment consisting of zinc sulphide, barium sulphate and zinc oxide. Also known as Beckton White, Charlton White, Duresco Enamel White, Jersey Lily White, Knight's White, Griffiths White, Fulton White, Lithophone, Marbon White, Nevin orr's White, Oleum White, Pinolith, Porcelain White, Ross's White, Zinc Baryta White, Zincolith, Zinc Sulphide White.

Lithopone is a granular, white or greyish powder.

Lithopone is produced by precipitation through filtering, heating and quenching works and used as a base for pigment in paint, inc, cosmetics and many other applications in the plastic industry. It is also used as a filler in paper, leather and linoleum. Its use has meanwhile mostly been replaced by Titanium Dioxide which is more durable.

Absorbs carbon dioxide from the air. Insoluble in common organic solvents and water. Turns yellow on heating.
