How to Approach Titanium Dioxide in Products

The company was established in 1989. Its predecessor is the titanium dioxide factory, a secondary independent accounting production unit affiliated to CNNC 404. It is a high-grade rutile with an annual output of more than 10,000 tons that imported advanced foreign technology and key equipment earlier in my country. It is also a high-quality titanium dioxide supplier in my country earlier in the market. After years of development, the company now has three production bases in Jiayuguan, Gansu, Baiyin, and Maanshan, Anhui.

EFSA’s scientific advice will be used by risk managers (the European Commission, Member States) to inform any decisions they take on possible regulatory actions.

Hebei Caixin Material Technology Co., LTD., formerly established in 2005, is located in the core of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei City cluster, close to Tianjin Port, the largest port in the north, with developed transportation and outstanding people. After the continuous efforts of Caiqing people, has accumulated assets for the company of nearly 200 million, nearly 1,000 employees, Caiqing technology has become the pigment titanium dioxide research and development, production, sales and import and export trade in one of the large company, we integrate industry resources, to provide personalized customized services for global customers. We adhere to the market-oriented, good faith as the principle, is committed to open up a diversified international market, for the world customers to provide quality products, efficient service, is our unremitting pursuit.

Lithopone, C.I. Pigment White 5, is a mixture of inorganic compounds, widely used as a white pigment powder. It is composed of a mixture of barium sulfate and zinc sulfide. These insoluble compounds blend well with organic compounds and confer opacity. It was made popular by the cheap production costs, greater coverage. Related white pigments include titanium dioxide, zinc oxide (zinc white), zinc sulfide, and white lead.

5. Is EFSA banning titanium dioxide? 

Titanium dioxide (TiO₂). Titanium dioxide is the most common white pigment used today. As a pigment, titanium dioxide is unique because it combines both high colouring and high opacifying capacity. This is mainly due to its high refractive index (2.7). Furthermore, titanium dioxide is an excellent UV absorber (it is used in sun protective creams). Some typical properties are: density 3.3-4.25 g/cm³; pH of water suspension 3.5-10.5; particle size 8–300 nm; oil absorption 10–45 g/100 g; specific surface area 7–160 m²/g. Most titanium dioxide is produced from the rutile (TiO₂) or ilmenite (titanate of ferrous iron). Titanium dioxide can be obtained using different processes.
