Titanium dioxide is produced in two main forms. The primary form, comprising over 98 percent of total production, is pigment grade titanium dioxide. The pigmentary form makes use of titanium dioxide’s excellent light-scattering properties in applications that require white opacity and brightness. The other form in which titanium dioxide is produced is as an ultrafine (nanomaterial) product. This form is selected when different properties, such as transparency and maximum ultraviolet light absorption, are required, such as in cosmetic sunscreens.

This is often done using specialized equipment like ball mills or attritors, which grind the particles to an ultrafine consistency, enhancing the pigment's opacity and whiteness This is often done using specialized equipment like ball mills or attritors, which grind the particles to an ultrafine consistency, enhancing the pigment's opacity and whiteness
