The production process of TiO2 pigments is an intricate one, requiring precise control over chemical reactions and physical properties. It begins with the extraction of titanium ore, primarily ilmenite or rutile, which undergoes a series of processes including crushing, leaching, and smelting to produce titanium dioxide. This raw form is then processed further to create the two main types of TiO2 pigments rutile and anatase. Each type offers different optical and physical properties, catering to specific industrial needs.

In order to contribute with experimental evidence that could help to achieve a better understanding of the field for future regulation, in the present work, the biocompatibility of commercial P25TiO2NPs (one type of TiO2NPs used in sunscreen formulations) and two novel functionalized P25TiO2NPs were evaluated under solar simulated irradiation. White light, generated by red, blue, and yellow LEDs, together with UV ones, was chosen to simulate the solar spectra. Functionalization of TiO2NPs was made with antioxidant vitamins in order to prevent the expected photo-initiated ROS production when nanoparticles are exposed to the simulated solar spectra. Vitamin B2 (riboflavin) and vitamin C were chosen to carry out the functionalization because they are water-soluble, low-cost, and are a constitutive part of biological processes. In addition, it is known that both have the potential to prevent macromolecular oxidation by ROS [23][24][25][26].

Firstly, calcium carbonate factories can be categorized into two primary types natural and synthetic. Natural calcium carbonate factories extract limestone, marble, or chalk, all of which are rich in calcium carbonate, from the earth's crust. These materials are then processed through grinding and purification techniques to produce calcium carbonate powder. On the other hand, synthetic calcium carbonate factories create the compound through a chemical reaction between calcium oxide (quicklime) and carbon dioxide. This method is often used when a purer form of calcium carbonate is required.
