The Significance of Anatase Titanium Dioxide Producers in the Modern Industry
Barium sulfide is produced by carbothermic reduction of barium sulfate. Zinc sulfate is obtained from a variety of zinc products, often waste, by treatment with sulfuric acid.
Why all of a sudden is there so much interest in the safety of Titanium Dioxide?
Researchers from France and Luxembourg gave E171 (the much more food friendly name for Titanium Dioxide) in Europe and the United States, to lab rats in their drinking water for 100 days.
Of those rats, 40 per cent of the exposed rodents developed “preneoplastic lesions” or precancerous growths. The Titanium Dioxide also inhibited the immune systems of the rats and “accelerated” the growth of the lesions. France’s INRA agricultural research institute, which took part in the study, said in a statement.“These results demonstrate a role in initiating and promoting the early stages of colorectal cancer formation,” though it said no conclusion could be drawn about later phases of cancer, or of any danger to humans……….(not till they test it on us!!)
The results of the study were published in the Nature journal Scientific Reports.

Furthermore, the increasing demand for eco-friendly products has led to a growing interest in titanium dioxide as an alternative to traditional pigments. Titanium dioxide nanoparticles have been shown to have photocatalytic properties, which can help break down pollutants in the air and water. This makes it an attractive option for manufacturers looking to reduce their environmental impact while still producing high-quality products.

Titanium dioxide is a versatile and widely used white pigment that is commonly found in a variety of products, including paper. Its high refractive index and opacity make it an excellent choice for improving the brightness and coverage of paper products.
