After the festival, the domestic rutile and anatase titanium dioxide new single price is stable, and the market new single transaction focus has moved up. Titanium dioxide factory work normally, more delivery of early orders, spot shipping pressure is small; And the buyer just needed to buy a few days ago. 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 delivery orders after the holiday, it is expected that the spot inventory is still low today, 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.”
