Yesterday, the domestic rutile type, anatase titanium dioxide new single price stability, the market overall transaction focus moved up. Titanium dioxide factory work normally, more delivery of early orders, less spot supply; And buyers still have inventory digestion, the current mentality turned to wait-and-see. The volume of new orders in the market is limited.The key factors affecting the current market price change1. Inventory: the mainstream manufacturer inventory is low, there are still early delivery orders, it is expected that today's spot inventory is still low, and the mainstream factory spot is tight.

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.”

Barium sulphate, a chemical compound with the formula BaSO₄, is widely recognized for its numerous applications in various industries, particularly in the field of medicine, paints, plastics, and as a component in drilling fluids. One of the distinguishing features of barium sulphate is its striking physical property its color. Understanding the color of barium sulphate not only helps in identifying the compound during handling but also plays a significant role in its applications and quality assessment.
