A 2012 study published in the journal Environmental Science & Technology noted that children are especially exposed to titanium dioxide because of the food that contains the food additive and is particularly marketed to children, including candy and cakes.

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) is a versatile compound widely utilized in various industries, particularly in the production of paints, coatings, plastics, and paper. The accurate determination of titanium dioxide content is essential for quality control purposes in these manufacturing processes. Among the various methods available for quantifying TiO2, gravimetric analysis stands out due to its reliability and accuracy. This article explores the gravimetric determination of titanium dioxide, its significance in factory settings, and the technical processes involved.
