- Since 1887, the name Sennelier has become synonymous with quality, artist-driven innovation and an unwavering commitment to the promotion of art. Today, Sennelier turns expertise, experience and an unerring eye for color to create a range of professional grade acrylics.
- Sennelier Extra-Fine Artist Acryliques contain only the highest quality pigments , selected to ensure: clarity, purity, coverage and stability over time. A wide palette of 120 colors, most made entirely from one pigment, includes all the colors that have made Sennelier's Artists' Oils famous, including the traditional: Ultramarines, Earths, Ochers, Cadmiums (Cadmium), Cobalt, and colors based on Quinacridone, Pyrrole, Naphthol, and Phthalocyanine. The range also features four Interference colors (Coated transparent colors of Mica metal powders with titanium dioxide) and six iridescent colors.
- Sennelier maintains the tradition of small-scale manufacturing, which is subject to strict and continuous control of quality. Each stage of production is thoroughly tested in the laboratory.
- With a texture reminiscent of the rich and creamy Sennelier Artists' Oils, Sennelier Extra-Fine Acryliques are ideal for working in layers or wash techniques but also in combination with other techniques such as pastel, charcoal or ink, in overlays and to create collages and inlays.
- They can be used indoors as well as outdoors and have adhesion to non-greasy surfaces surfaces, such as: paper, canvas, cardboard, wood, fabric, cement, plaster and on some plastics and metals.
- They can be worked with a brush, with a palette knife, with the fingers, but also directly from the tube to create thick lines. Their excellent spreading properties make it easy to blend, allowing an infinite number of shades without changing the brightness. They are excellent for coatings and can be mixed with Sennelier acrylic mediums and retarders to change their texture, viscosity, transparency and brightness. They are low odor and dry quickly to create a permanent, insoluble, non-cracking, non-yellowing and water-resistant layer.
- Suitable for all acrylic techniques.

Properties
Titanium White is the most brilliant of the white pigments. It is considered an all purpose oil color useful in all techniques and the best all around white. Its masstone is neither warm nor cool, placing it somewhere between Lead White and Zinc White. It is less prone to cracking and yellowing than Lead White, but it still yellows easily. Titanium White dries slowly in oil form, more slowly than Lead White but more quickly than Zinc White. It is opaque in oil and acrylic forms and semi-opaque in watercolor form. This pigment has good chemical stability, and its tinting strength is superior to both Lead White and Zinc White.
-
Permanence
Titanium White has excellent permanence and lightfastness.

Toxicity
Titanium dioxide is highly stable and is regarded as completely non-toxic. Animal studies do not indicate that it is absorbed biologically, even after long periods of exposure. The primary safety concern is with inhalation of fine pigment dust particles. If inhaled in large amounts over several years, Titanium White may cause benign pneumoconiosis visible on x-rays. The National Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) considers fine titanium dioxide particles, if inhaled, to be a human carcinogen. The primary concern for artists is to avoid exposure to fine particulate dust from raw pigments.

History
Titanium is the ninth most abundant element in the Earth's crust, however mineral deposits that are economical to mine are less common. Titanium dioxide was first discovered in 1821, although it could not be mass produced until 1919. Widespread use of the pigment began in the 1940s. Since that time, it has become the most commonly used white pigment. The name comes from the Latin word Titan, the name for the elder brother of Kronos and ancestor of the Titans, and from the Greek word tito, meaning day or sun.
