Infrared analysis showed that the characteristics bands for the bare nanoparticles are still exhibited in the vitamins@P25TiO2NPs spectra, such as a wide peak in 450–1028 cm−1 related to the stretching vibration of Ti-O-Ti and other peaks in 1630 cm−1 and 3400 cm−1, which represent the surface OH groups stretching. The IR spectrum of vitaminB2@P25TiO2NPs showed signs of binding between compounds. The OH bending peak (1634 cm−1) corresponding to bare nanoparticles disappeared, and the NH2 bending band characteristic of vitamin B2 appeared (1650 cm−1). The IR spectrum of vitaminC@P25TiO2NPs also showed signs of successful functionalization. Bands at 1075 cm−1; 1120 cm−1; 1141 cm−1 were observed, which are originated by CsingleO-C vibrations present in the vitamin C. The intense band at 1672 cm−1 is attributed to the C = O stretching in the lactone ring while the peak at 1026 cm−1 is ascribed to the stretching vibration Ti-O-C. Wide bands at 3880–3600 cm−1 are related to stretching vibration OH groups, but those disappear in the modified nanoparticles spectrum. These observations confirm the interactions between the P25TiO2NPs and the vitamins [35].

titanium oxide and 2 per cent' sulphuric acidand 63 per cent water, are slowly added to a solution containing 1050 pounds of barium sulphide, held in a large cylindrical tank, provided with a rotary agitation :capable of producing rapid agitation. The mass isthus v rapidly agitated, and the 2 per cent of sulphuric acid contained in the titanium acid cake reacts with a small portion of the barium sulphide. This reaction may be represented by the following equation TiO H 80 The free sulphuric acid of the titanium acid cake is neutralized by thebarium sul-' phide solution, forming barium sulphate and hydrogen sulphide, as indicated by the above equation. As the sulphuric acid is present only in a small percentage, the major porltiion of the barium sulphide remains as suc very fine colloidal suspension. The barium sulphate produced is also very fine, and the presence of this. very fine barium sulphate in suspension, and also of the very fine colloidal titanium oxide, is believed to be the explanation of the great improvement in the properties of the finished lithopone.

Titanium dioxide is widely used in industries ranging from paints and cosmetics to food colorants and solar cells. Its purity is of utmost importance, and the presence of impurities like sulfate can significantly affect its performance and safety. The conversion of sulfate into TiO2 during the manufacturing process requires stringent control and accurate measurement to ensure product quality and compliance with regulatory standards.
