Another important aspect of TiO2 is its stability
Titanium dioxide works by absorbing, reflecting, and scattering UV radiation. When UV rays come into contact with titanium dioxide particles, they are either absorbed or reflected back into the atmosphere. This process helps to protect the skin from UVB and UVA rays, which can cause sunburn, skin aging, and even skin cancer.
In conclusion, nano titania is a versatile and effective additive for coatings, offering numerous advantages that contribute to the performance and sustainability of coatings. With China's focus on using nano titania in coatings, the coatings industry is poised to benefit from the unique properties and benefits of this innovative material.
China's Dominance in Titanium Dioxide A Chemical Formula for Global Impact
Gravimetric analysis is a highly accurate method for determining the concentration of titanium dioxide in a sample. It is also a relatively simple and inexpensive technique, making it a popular choice for industries that require precise measurements of the compound.
On November 23, 2022, the General Court of the European Union reversed the conclusion that titanium dioxide was carcinogenic and released a statement (1,2):
“First, the Commission made a manifest error in its assessment of the reliability and acceptability of the study on which the classification was based and, second, it infringed the criterion according to which that classification can relate only to a substance that has the intrinsic property to cause cancer.”
As part of our mission at CRIS we base our safety assessments on the currently available scientific evidence and consider many variables (e.g., study quality, journal of publication, etc.), even if it goes against previous conclusions. Evidence-informed decisions making is critical to ensure that the laws and regulations put into place are for the benefit of the population.
The EU General Court maintains that the scientific evidence presented wasn’t the complete picture for the ingredient, “in the present case, the requirement to base the classification of a carcinogenic substance on reliable and acceptable studies was not satisfied.”
