titanium dioxide for printing inks

Titanium dioxide, commonly known as TiO2, is a naturally occurring white pigment that has revolutionized the manufacturing industry. Its unique properties make it an ideal candidate for various applications, particularly in the production of pigments used in paints, plastics, paper, and other consumer products. In this article, we will explore the significance of TiO2 in pigment manufacturing and how it has become a cornerstone for manufacturers worldwide.

It should also be considered that due to the low pH in the stomach, the increased dissolution of the TiO2 particles may increase its bioavailability and may facilitate the entry of titanium ions into the blood circulation. Despite the relatively large consumption of TiO2 as a food additive, no studies on the effect of pH on its absorption and bioavailability have been found in the literature. This can be attributed to a general belief that TiO2is completely insoluble. However, this is not completely true, as TiO2 particles show a certain degree of solubility.
