The conjugation of vitamin C to the P25TiO₂NPs was confirmed by UV-visible spectroscopy of lyophilized vitaminC@P25TiO₂NPs suspensions. The typical absorbance peak of ascorbic acid at 265 nm was found. However, no further characterization was done because they did not show the expected protective effect against the photo-induced cell damage (Fig. 3).

Prof. Maged Younes, Chair of EFSA’s expert Panel on Food Additives and Flavourings (FAF), wrote of the decision: “Taking into account all available scientific studies and data, the Panel concluded that titanium dioxide can no longer be considered safe as a food additive. A critical element in reaching this conclusion is that we could not exclude genotoxicity concerns after consumption of titanium dioxide particles. After oral ingestion, the absorption of titanium dioxide particles is low, however they can accumulate in the body.”

Très apprécié dans le travail des Icônes pour éclaircir, mais également pour les vernis, émaux, peintures, plastique et papier. A l'inverse, ne pas utiliser ce produit dans les applications cosmétiques, comme additif alimentaire ou comme additif médicamenteux.

Conclusion

Nanotoxicology 

Yesterday, some parts of the domestic rutile, anatase titanium dioxide new single price to maintain stability, titanium dioxide factory normal, more delivery of early orders, spot shipping pressure is small; And the buyer just needed to buy a few days ago. Downstream manufacturers are currently watching the latest execution price.The key factors affecting the current market price change1. Inventory: Low inventory of mainstream producers, mainly delivery of pre-contract orders, is expected today's spot inventory is still low, mainstream factories before the holiday spot tension.2. Mentality: the buyer has to prepare goods in advance, and the new order price is slightly less willing to purchase in bulk; Sellers due to the lack of inventory, manufacturers have no willingness to reduce the price of sales in the market of new orders just need to buy more.Trend: The load of titanium dioxide enterprises is stable, the willingness to ship at low prices is not strong, and the downstream buyer's early orders continue to digest, and the acceptance of the purchase before the holiday is acceptable. It is expected that the market of titanium dioxide just needs to be closed today, and it is concerned about the new execution price of the mainstream factory.

Though the regulated use of titanium dioxide in food products is legal in the U.S. and Canada, it's banned in some other countries, notably throughout Europe. In May 2021, the European Food Safety Authority announced that titanium dioxide can no longer be considered safe as a food additive.

3. UV Protection Tires are constantly exposed to harsh environmental conditions, including ultraviolet (UV) rays from the sun. Titanium dioxide provides excellent UV protection, minimizing degradation caused by prolonged exposure. This property ensures that tires maintain their integrity and performance over time, leading to a longer lifespan.

Lomon, one of the leading titanium dioxide manufacturers in China, produces the R996 grade titanium dioxide with purity levels exceeding 99%. This high purity ensures that the pigment provides excellent hiding power and color retention in paints, making it a popular choice for the paint industry.
