r 902 titanium dioxide factory

One of the primary functions of titanium dioxide in plastic manufacturing is its ability to act as a potent ultraviolet (UV) light absorber. By incorporating TiO2 into plastic formulations, manufacturers can create materials that resist discoloration and degradation caused by exposure to sunlight and other sources of UV radiation. This not only extends the lifespan of the final product but also maintains its aesthetic appeal over time, making it especially valuable for outdoor applications such as gardening tools, outdoor furniture, and automotive parts.

TiO2 comes in many different forms. However, only a few of these forms are considered food-grade (acceptable to be added to food). Many studies that raised concern about the safety of TiO2, including the concern for genotoxicity, used forms of TiO2 that are not considered acceptable for use in food and have different properties than food-grade TiO2. Other studies did use food-grade TiO2, but took steps to break the material down into smaller particles than what would normally be found in food.
