titanium dioxide market report factories

For exterior wall paint materials, titanium dioxide plays a critical role in enhancing weather resistance. Its ultraviolet (UV) light absorption characteristics protect the binder system from degradation caused by sunlight exposure. As a result, paints containing titanium dioxide are less likely to fade, chalk, or crack under harsh environmental conditions. Moreover, its chemical stability prevents the pigment from reacting with other paint components, maintaining the integrity of the coating and extending its lifespan.

The pricing of these lithopones varies depending on several factors such as raw material costs, production processes, and market demand. As global markets fluctuate, so too does the cost of lithopone, with suppliers often adjusting their price lists to reflect these changes. This dynamic nature of pricing requires buyers to stay informed and adaptable, seeking out not only competitive rates but also assurances of consistent product quality.

The National Cancer Institute tested TiO2 for possible carcinogenicity by the oral route of exposure by feeding rats and mice with TiO2 (size not specified) at doses 25,000 or 50,000 ppm TiO2 for 103 weeks. They concluded that TiO2 was not carcinogenic.Also, the study with rats fed diets containing up to 5 % TiO2 coated mica for 130 weeks showed no treatment-related carcinogenicity. Since the size and other TiO2 properties were not specified or determined, we cannot generalize this conclusion and we have to take into account other possible outcomes of this scenario in different exposure conditions (other size/crystalline structure of TiO2 etc.).
