Lithopone(CAS NO.1345-05-7) is manufactured by a process in which barium sulfide solution is prepared by reducing barite ore (BaSO4) with carbon and leaching the resulting mass.
For a mini-review published in the journal Particle and Fibre Technology in 2021, scientists wanted to evaluate whether Ti02 particles contributed to the development and/or exacerbation of irritable bowel disease, and whether they altered the four elements of intestinal barrier function: the intestinal microbiota, the immune system, the mucus layer, and the epithelium. The breakdown of these four elements can contribute to autoimmune, neurological, inflammatory, infectious, and metabolic diseases. Following their review, the researchers concluded: “Data indicate that TiO2 is able to alter the four compartments of IBF and to induce a low-grade intestinal inflammation associated or not with pre-neoplastic lesions.”
In conclusion, titanium dioxide is a game changer for the coatings industry. With its excellent hiding power, UV resistance, durability and environmental friendliness, it adds significant value to paint formulations. Whether you're looking to renovate your walls or looking for a solid paint option for your exterior surfaces, titanium dioxide-infused paints are the answer. Embrace the brilliance and durability that titanium dioxide has to offer and enjoy the long-lasting and vibrant finish it brings to your living spaces.
