chemical material tio2 rutile titanium dioxide r816 for coating and paints suppliers

When selecting a coatings titanium dioxide supplier, quality should be the top priority. Look for a supplier who has a proven track record of providing high-quality products. This can be verified by checking their certifications, such as ISO 9001, which ensures that they have established quality management systems. Additionally, inquire about their testing procedures and quality control measures to ensure that the TiO2 they provide meets your requirements.

China, as a global manufacturing hub, plays a significant role in the production and pricing of various industrial materials, including lithopone pigments. Lithopone, a versatile white pigment, is widely used in industries like coatings, plastics, printing inks, and paper due to its excellent whiteness, opacity, and cost-effectiveness. It is a combination of zinc sulfide and barium sulfate, offering a cost-efficient alternative to titanium dioxide.

In a study published in the journal Environmental Toxicology and Pharmacology in 2020, researchers examined the effects of food additives titanium dioxide and silica on the intestinal tract by grouping and feeding mice three different food-grade particles — micro-TiO2, nano-TiO2, and nano-SiO2.  With all three groups, researchers observed changes in the gut microbiota, particularly mucus-associated bacteria. Furthermore, all three groups experienced inflammatory damage to the intestine, but the nano-TiO2 displayed the most pronounced changes. The researchers wrote: “Our results suggest that the toxic effects on the intestine were due to reduced intestinal mucus barrier function and an increase in metabolite lipopolysaccharides which activated the expression of inflammatory factors downstream. In mice exposed to nano-TiO2, the intestinal PKC/TLR4/NF-κB signaling pathway was activated. These findings will raise awareness of toxicities associated with the use of food-grade TiO2 and SiO2.”
