Titanium dioxide, a white inorganic compound widely used as a pigment in paints, plastics, paper, and other products, is an essential material in the modern industrial world. Its unique properties, such as high refractive index and strong brightness, make it an ideal substance for various applications. However, like many commodities, the price of titanium dioxide is subject to fluctuations influenced by several factors including supply and demand dynamics, production costs, and geopolitical events.

Titanium dioxide is a testament to the power of chemistry in shaping modern society. Its journey from a naturally occurring mineral to a multifaceted industrial commodity reflects our ongoing quest for materials that enhance our quality of life while pushing the boundaries of technological innovation. As we continue to explore new ways to harness its potential, titanium dioxide is sure to remain a pivotal component in the development of sustainable technologies and green engineering solutions.

It is expected that the implementation of rutile titanium dioxide market manufacturers will be stable this week, the new single quotation of the production link will be firm, the supply of low-cost goods will be reduced, and the reference range of the overall market transaction will rise slightly. It is expected that the market transaction reference is 15200-16200 yuan/ton, and the weekly average price may refer to 15600 yuan/ton. In addition, considering the difference of orders received by different manufacturers, some manufacturers may still have 300-500 yuan/ton of negotiation room. On the demand side, most buyers still have inventory to use, so the current new batch transaction intention is not strong; On the supply side, some producers are expected to increase the load next week, so the industry time output may be slightly increased. On the whole, it is expected that the overall trading range will rise slightly next week, but most producers will adjust the real single negotiation range according to their own orders, and the new single stable price of mainstream producers.

  • Prof Maged Younes, Chair of EFSA’s expert Panel on Food Additives and Flavourings (FAF), said: “Taking into account all available scientific studies and data, the Panel concluded that titanium dioxide can no longer be considered safe as a food additive . A critical element in reaching this conclusion is that we could not exclude genotoxicity concerns after consumption of titanium dioxide particles. After oral ingestion, the absorption of titanium dioxide particles is low, however they can accumulate in the body”.
