According to the feedback of manufacturers, the recent mainstream factory new single price, the market as a whole into the center of gravity. On the demand side, the terminal in August is still the off-season, many downstream still have inventory use, the current batch purchase intention is limited, and the market turnover is low. Some plastics and papermaking related downstream feedback part of the signal price is high. Recent titanium dioxide raw material price shock is strong, titanium dioxide price upward support has been enhanced, comprehensive market factors, the current titanium dioxide market into the stable price state after rising.

Titanium dioxide (TiO₂). Titanium dioxide is the most common white pigment used today. As a pigment, titanium dioxide is unique because it combines both high colouring and high opacifying capacity. This is mainly due to its high refractive index (2.7). Furthermore, titanium dioxide is an excellent UV absorber (it is used in sun protective creams). Some typical properties are: density 3.3-4.25 g/cm³; pH of water suspension 3.5-10.5; particle size 8–300 nm; oil absorption 10–45 g/100 g; specific surface area 7–160 m²/g. Most titanium dioxide is produced from the rutile (TiO₂) or ilmenite (titanate of ferrous iron). Titanium dioxide can be obtained using different processes.
