tion of the precipitate, the mass is filter pressed, dried, muflled and processed in the on the market, in that the {covering capacity of the pigment is greatly increased, as well The titanium oxide is peptized or held in as its fastness to light, and ease of working in oils. It is also superior to the so called double strength lithopone made by doubling the zinc sulphide conent, in that it is very neutral to acid vehicles. It is also far superior to other titanium compounds on the market, inasmuch as greater opacities are obtained with a relatively small amount of titanium oxide, than has heretofore been obtained with far greater proportions of titanium oxide, thereby effecting a considerable economy over that of other similar products containing'titanium oxide.

Some websites maintain titanium dioxide is inferior to zinc oxide, another mineral sunscreen ingredient whose core characteristics are similar to those of titanium dioxide. The reality is that titanium dioxide is a great broad-spectrum SPF ingredient and is widely used in all manner of sun-protection products. What gets confusing for some consumers is trying to decipher research that ranks sunscreen ingredients by a UV spectrum graph. By most standards, broad-spectrum coverage for sunscreen ingredients is defined as one that surpasses 360 nanometers (abbreviated as “nm” - how the sun’s rays are measured). Titanium dioxide exceeds this range of protection, but depending on whose research you read, it either performs as well as or slightly below zinc oxide.
