I learned how to optimize the TI02 and save money.

McMahon - Right Pointe

Although I work in plastic fibers industry, I've learned something new from the course. Everything was excellent.

Ziva Brecko - AquafilSLO

Very good! It gave new ideas like the usage of Air for better Scattering.

Michael J. - BASF Coatings GmbH

Excellent course! This is my first introduction to this level of detail on TiO2 dispersions.

Dennis P. - Hewlett-Packard Company

This very good course helped me to understand different ways of maximizing the hiding of TiO2 in coatings.
