The leading Chinese TiO2 exporter in value and quantity has been Sichuan Lomon, followed by Henan Billions and Gansu CNNC Huayuan. However, Sichuan Lomon exported a value of titanium dioxide by USD100,000,000 more than the second rank Henan Billions. Henan Billions, on the other hand, exported over USD70,000,000 more TiO2 than Gansu CNNC Huayuan. This demonstrates the huge monopole-like position of the newly merged company Henan Lomon, which can determine the market development for TiO2 in China nearly all alone.

Lithopone was discovered in the 1870s by DuPont. It was manufactured by Krebs Pigments and Chemical Company and other companies. The material came in different seals, which varied in the content of zinc sulfide. Gold seal and Bronze seals contain 40-50% zinc sulfide, offering more hiding power and strength. Although its popularity peaked around 1920, approximately 223,352 tons were produced in 1990. It is mainly used in paints, putty, and in plastics.

The production process of TiO2 pigments is an intricate one, requiring precise control over chemical reactions and physical properties. It begins with the extraction of titanium ore, primarily ilmenite or rutile, which undergoes a series of processes including crushing, leaching, and smelting to produce titanium dioxide. This raw form is then processed further to create the two main types of TiO2 pigments rutile and anatase. Each type offers different optical and physical properties, catering to specific industrial needs.
