To address these challenges, researchers are exploring alternative production methods that are more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. For example, the use of solar energy to power the oxidation of titanium ore has been proposed as a way to reduce the energy consumption of the sulfate process. Other approaches include the development of new catalysts that can replace sulfuric acid in the oxidation step, as well as the exploration of bio-based feedstocks for TiO2 production.

  • There are many titanium dioxide manufacturer in market. Rutile Titanium dioxide in the form of a white pigment is widely used in the industry:
    1. In the production of inks and printing inks - as a pigment with excellent whiteness and very good properties.
    2. Plastic materials, such as: wall claddings, floor coverings (linoleum, rubber, PVC), roofing, wires, cables - titanium white is included in the protective layer against degradation of atmospheric conditions (especially UV radiation), and has concealing properties.
    3. Cosmetics: gels, eye shadows, foundation, lipstick, pastes (including teeth) - as a component of pigments.
    4. Tanning preparations - surface-modified with a hydrophobic coating - acts as a UV filter.
    5. Paper pulp - anatine is used as a filler and reinforcement.
    6, Packaging film, adhesive mortars, plasters, cement, caulking agents, ceramic tiles - is an additive that improves resistance to colour change.
    7. PCigar production - titanium white gives the ash a white color.
