anatase and rutile suppliers

Manufacturers of rutile titanium dioxide employ different processes to produce this versatile pigment. The two primary methods are the sulfate process and the chloride process. In the sulfate process, ilmenite ore is treated with sulfuric acid to form titanyl sulfate solution, which is subsequently processed into titanium dioxide. This method typically results in a more opaque and durable pigment that is preferred in applications where weatherability is crucial. On the other hand, the chloride process involves treating rutile ore with chlorine gas to produce titanium tetrachloride, which is then refined and oxidized to form titanium dioxide. This method often yields a higher purity product suitable for applications requiring greater brightness and color stability.

For research published in 2022 study in the journal Food and Chemical Toxicology, scientists examined “the genotoxicity and the intracellular reactive oxygen species induction by physiologically relevant concentrations of three different TiO2 nanomaterials in Caco-2 and HT29-MTX-E12 intestinal cells, while considering the potential influence of the digestion process in the NMs’ physiochemical characteristics.” They found a “DNA-damaging effect dependent on the nanomaterial,” along with the micronucleus assay suggesting “effects on chromosomal integrity, an indicator of cancer risk, in the HT29-MTX-E12 cells, for all the tested TiO2 nanomaterials.” Researchers concluded that the results showcase “evidence of concern” regarding titanium dioxide used as a food additive.
