  • Because of health risks, France banned titanium dioxide as a food additive in 2020. Two years later the European Union also banned titanium dioxide as a food additive. 

  • The updated evaluation revises the outcome of EFSA’s previous assessment published in 2016, which highlighted the need for more research to fill data gaps.  

  • Lithopone was discovered in the 1870s by DuPont. It was manufactured by Krebs Pigments and Chemical Company and other companies. The material came in different seals, which varied in the content of zinc sulfide. Gold seal and Bronze seals contain 40-50% zinc sulfide, offering more hiding power and strength. Although its popularity peaked around 1920, approximately 223,352 tons were produced in 1990. It is mainly used in paints, putty, and in plastics.

  • In addition to these major players, there are several other titanium dioxide manufacturers in China that contribute to the country's strong position in the global market. These companies benefit from China's abundant supply of raw materials, advanced manufacturing capabilities, and growing demand for titanium dioxide in various industries.
  • It is important for manufacturers to maintain strong relationships with their customers and partners to ensure a smooth supply chain and efficient distribution of titanium dioxide rutile. This includes collaborating with raw material suppliers, distributors, and end-users to address any issues or concerns, as well as to gather feedback and insights for product improvement and development.

  • Having thus descrihed my invention, I claim 1. Inthe production of a pigment the steps comprising slowly introducing titanium acid cake into a solution of barium sulphide while subjecting the mass to rapid agitation, mixing the resultant mass with a solution of zinc sulphate and separating the composite precipitate.
  • After settling, the clear solution containing the titanium oxide, is run oil andfurther processed, whereby a roduct is obtained containing approximate y 35 per cent titanium oxide, 2 per cent sulphuric acid and 63 per cent of water. This product is known in the trade as titanium acid cake. It is a plastic mags having somewhat the consistency of mu 1 ljha've discovered that lithopone can be greatly improved by the suitable use of this titanium acid cake, and that the results obtained are dependent to a large extent upon the methods'by which this titanium acid cake is used,'in the production of lithopone.

  • The pricing of lithopone pigments can fluctuate based on several factors, including raw material costs, production processes, and market demand. Typically, wholesale prices reflect the bulk purchasing power, enabling businesses to acquire these materials at a lower cost per unit. Over the years, the market has seen fluctuations in prices due to changes in the supply chain and global economic conditions. It is crucial for buyers to stay informed about these trends to budget effectively and maintain profitability.


  • The anatase price is influenced by several factors, including production costs, raw material availability, and market demand. The production process of anatase involves complex procedures that require specialized equipment and skilled personnel. This, in turn, affects the overall cost of production, which ultimately impacts the anatase price. Moreover, the availability of raw materials such as ilmenite or rutile, which are essential for producing anatase, also plays a crucial role in determining its price. If these materials become scarce or their prices increase, it can lead to a surge in the anatase price.
  • Lithopone is rather nontoxic, due to the insolubility of its components. It has been used in medicine as a radiocontrast agent. Lithopone is allowed to be in contact with foodstuffs in the US and Europe.[1]

  • Titanium dioxide R-996 is mainly used in powder coatings, water-based and solvent-based external coatings, high-grade color masterbatches, plastics, rubber, inks, high-grade paper and wax paper and leather upholstery fabrics, cosmetics, suitable for high-grade interior coatings, high-solid paints, Road marking paints, marine paints and inks, and also used in the plastics, rubber, paper and leather industries.

  • 10. ISK Bioxsys A Korean company that produces TIO2 pigments for use in cosmetics, food, and pharmaceuticals.
  • The pigment’s low Mohs hardness produces low abrasion compared to TiO2.

  • By reducing processed foods in your diet, you can reduce the likelihood of not only eating titanium dioxide but eating other chemicals of concern, Faber said, noting that consumers can also call their elected representatives urging them to support increased food safety legislation and take action with organization alliances like Toxic Free Food FDA. America, once again, is falling behind the rest of the world when it comes to chemical safety.

  • Another area where O2Ti excels is in its commitment to sustainability. The company recognizes the importance of reducing its environmental impact and has implemented several initiatives to minimize waste and conserve resources. For example, O2Ti uses energy-efficient components in its products and has implemented a recycling program for its packaging materials.
  • Furthermore, titanium dioxide improves the mechanical properties of nitrile gloves. It acts as a filler, reinforcing the polymer structure, which results in enhanced tensile strength, tear resistance, and flexibility. These improved properties make the gloves more durable, resistant to wear and tear, and comfortable to wear for extended periods.
  • Although the evidence for general toxic effects was not conclusive, on the basis of the new data and strengthened methods our scientists could not rule out a concern for genotoxicity and consequently they could not establish a safe level for daily intake of TiO2 as a food additive.

  • Because of its unique pigment and fine-milled texture, titanium dioxide has become popular over the past century in a wide variety of different products. These include adhesives, paints, plastics, rubbers, textiles, inks, ceramics, and even some pharmaceuticals, foods, and hygiene products.

  • Moreover, titanium dioxide is also used in rubber formulations to improve the processing and curing properties of rubber compounds. It acts as a catalyst in the vulcanization process, speeding up the cross-linking of rubber molecules and enhancing the overall performance of the final product. This results in rubber products that are stronger, more flexible, and better suited for a wide range of applications.


  • Because of their small size, nanoparticles may have unique physical and chemical properties. These properties may cause them to interact with living systems differently than larger materials with the same chemical composition (also known as bulk materials).

  • As an professional Lithopone factory, Jinan Hongquan Titanium Industry Co., Ltd is located in Jinan, a beautiful spring city. The company’s scientific research personnel sincerely cooperate with well-known domestic universities and various titanium dioxide production enterprises to study and produce active Lithopone with great concentration. Some of its products have been widely used in chemical, textile, paper, plastic, paint and other production fields.

  • Pendant longtemps on a reproché au lithopone sa mauvaise tenue à l'extérieur, due à la dégradation photolytique du sulfure de zinc et/ou à la présence de traces de chlore, provoquant un noircissement du revêtement. Même si la recherche a permis d'éradiquer en grande partie ce problème, on réserve son emploi dans les peintures intérieures pour les raisons suivantes :

  • In conclusion, the precipitation of titanium dioxide is a crucial step in the production of this widely used white pigment. Understanding the various methods and factors that influence this process is essential for optimizing production efficiency and product quality. With ongoing research and development, it is expected that new and improved precipitation techniques will emerge in the future, further enhancing the sustainability and competitiveness of TiO2 production.
  • It's also worth noting that even prior to the EU decision, France had already outlawed titanium dioxide in food back in January 2020.
