  • Applications of R-906 Rutile Titanium Dioxide
  • Overall, calcium carbonate and titanium dioxide are essential minerals in the global industrial market, with China playing a key role in their production and export. As demand for these minerals continues to grow, it will be important for China to invest in sustainable production practices and improve the efficiency of its mining and processing operations to meet global demand in a responsible manner.
  • Some websites maintain titanium dioxide is inferior to zinc oxide, another mineral sunscreen ingredient whose core characteristics are similar to those of titanium dioxide. The reality is that titanium dioxide is a great broad-spectrum SPF ingredient and is widely used in all manner of sun-protection products. What gets confusing for some consumers is trying to decipher research that ranks sunscreen ingredients by a UV spectrum graph. By most standards, broad-spectrum coverage for sunscreen ingredients is defined as one that surpasses 360 nanometers (abbreviated as “nm” - how the sun’s rays are measured). Titanium dioxide exceeds this range of protection, but depending on whose research you read, it either performs as well as or slightly below zinc oxide.
