For a substance that is relatively unknown to the public, it’s amazing how many everyday products TiO2 can be found in. Because of its many varied properties, our skin, cities, cars, homes, food and environment are made brighter, safer, more resilient and cleaner by TiO2. With a legacy of 100 years of safe commercial use, TiO2 is only going to become more vital as our environment faces greater challenges from a growing population.

Titanium dioxide production is not without its environmental impacts. The traditional process involves mining rutile ore, which can lead to significant land disruption and potential pollution if not managed carefully. Moreover, the conversion of raw ore into usable TiO2 requires energy-intensive processes that contribute to carbon emissions. As such, consumers and manufacturers alike are increasingly seeking suppliers committed to sustainable practices.

In a study published in the journal Food and Chemical Toxicology in 2016, researchers investigated whether titanium dioxide exposure led to an increase in colorectal tumor creation in mice by using a colitis associated cancer model. By measuring tumor progression markers, the researchers found that mice given titanium dioxide experienced enhanced tumor formation in the distal colon.  There was also a decrease of cells that act as a protective barrier in the colon. The researchers wrote: “These results suggest that E171 could worsen pre-existent intestinal diseases.”
