The present disclosure relates to titanium dioxide particles designed to enhance reflection of both IR and visible wavelengths, or energy, and their use in forming cool, fully opaque polymeric articles prepared by melt processible resin. Such articles, made from melt processible thermoplastic and/or thermoset resin have enhanced outdoor utility because they inhibit damage caused by the sun as a result of the article including titanium dioxide particles of the present invention exhibiting low photo-activity properties. |
