Titanium dioxide's significance in rubber production stems from its exceptional opacity and whiteness, which significantly improves the visual appeal of products like tires, rubber sheets, and various industrial rubber goods. Its ability to scatter light effectively makes it a preferred choice for creating bright, clean white shades in rubber products. Moreover, TiO2 also imparts heat resistance, enhances tensile strength, and improves the overall mechanical properties of the rubber, making it more durable and long-lasting.
