| Abstract | We propose an original theoretical framework to model the scattering efficiency of white paint films as a function of the volume fraction and spatial state of dispersion of rutile titanium dioxide pigments, taking into account electromagnetic couplings. Numerical calculations are performed using a multiple T matrix formalism on an “elemental” volume extracted from the bulk of the paint and which we model as pigments and fillers in a polymer matrix. Qualitative studies show that, due to the dependent scattering phenomenon, the size of fillers can modulate the magnitude of loss in scattering efficiency by modifying the spatial state of dispersion of the pigments in the polymer matrix. In particular, fillers whose size is comparable to the dimension of the pigments improve the scattering efficiency by impeding crowding. It is also shown that the optical properties of the bulk material at arbitrary concentration can be approximated by extrapolating the optical properties calculated on a limited number of scatterers. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
