A study published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry in 2019 sought to examine the effects of titanium dioxide on intestinal inflammation. Researchers did this by feeding rats titanium dioxide nanoparticles and found that, after the course of two to three months, the animals had lower body weights and induced intestinal inflammation. The researchers also found the nanoparticles altered gut microbiota composition and aggravated chronic colitis. The rats also experienced reduced populations of CD4+T cells (which are cells that help organize immune responses by prompting other immune cells to fight infection), regulatory T cells, and white blood cells in mesenteric lymph nodes. The researchers wrote: “Dietary TiO2 nanoparticles could interfere with the balance of the immune system and dynamic of gut microbiome, which may result in low-grade intestinal inflammation and aggravated immunological response to external stimulus, thus introducing potential health risk.”

  • One of the primary reasons for the popularity of TiO2 in rubber is its ability to provide excellent whiteness and opacity. When incorporated into rubber compounds, TiO2 reflects light effectively, giving the final product a bright and uniform color. This is particularly beneficial for applications where aesthetic appearance is crucial, such as in the production of white tires, shoe soles, and rubber gloves.
