- As China's production and consumption of talc and titanium dioxide continue to grow, the country has become an increasingly important player in the global market for these minerals. In addition to meeting domestic demand, China has also emerged as a major exporter of both talc and titanium dioxide, shipping large quantities of these minerals to countries around the world. This has helped to establish China as a key supplier of these essential minerals, further cementing its position as a global economic powerhouse.
- In conclusion, selecting the right coating titanium dioxide supplier is critical to ensuring the success of your products. By considering factors such as quality, price, sustainability, service, and certification, you can find a supplier that provides the high-quality titanium dioxide you need to achieve the desired results.
When manufacturers add titanium dioxide to foods and other ingestible products, it’s typically referred to as E171, which relates to food-grade purity.

Where It’s Hiding

Furthermore, this packaging has been shown to have both antibacterial and photocatalytic activity, the latter of which reduces ultraviolet (UV) exposure (5Trusted Source, 6).


Titanium dioxide has similar uses in non-food products. It is used in sunscreen as effective protection against UVA/UVB rays from the sun, which creates a physical barrier between the sun’s rays and the skin. It’s also used to whiten paint, paper, plastic, ink, rubber, and cosmetics.


Recent analyses of food-grade TiO2 samples have found that a significant portion of particles may be within the nanoscale. These particles (also known as nanoparticles) range in size from 1 to 100 nm, where 1 nm equals 1 billionth of a metre (the width of a typical human hair is 80,000 to 100,000 nm).
Titanium dioxide is widely used as a color-enhancer in cosmetic and over-the-counter products like lipsticks, sunscreens, toothpaste, creams, and powders. It’s usually found as nano-titanium dioxide, which is much smaller than the food-grade version (7Trusted Source).
Production
Below 20% substitution, it is recommended to replace 1 kg of TiO2 with 1 kg of lithopone supplier.
