In addition to consistency, manufacturers must also consider the cost implications of buff percentage. Higher levels of coating on titanium dioxide particles can increase production costs, as more coating materials are required. However, a lower buff percentage may lead to a lower quality product that does not meet the needs of customers. Balancing the cost and quality considerations of buff percentage is a key challenge for manufacturers in the titanium dioxide industry.

The conventional surface treatment methods of titanium alloy include glow discharge plasma deposition, oxygen ion implantation, hydrogen peroxide treatment, thermal oxidation, sol-gel method, anodic oxidation, microarc oxidation, laser alloying, and pulsed laser deposition. These methods have different characteristics and are applied in different fields. Glow discharge plasma deposition can get a clean surface, and the thickness of the oxide film obtained is 2 nm to 150 nm [28]. The oxide film obtained from oxygen ion implantation is thicker, about several microns [914]. Hydrogen peroxide treatment of titanium alloy surface is a process of chemical dissolution and oxidation [1516]. The dense part of the oxide film is less than 5 nm [1721]. The oxide film generated from the thermal oxidation method has a porous structure, and its thickness is commonly about 10-20 μm [2225]. The oxide film from the sol-gel method is rich in Ti-OH, a composition that could induce apatite nucleation and improve the combining of implants and bone. It has a thickness of less than 10 μm [2628]. Applied with the anodic oxidation method, the surface can generate a porous oxide film of 10 μm to 20 μm thickness [2931]. Similarly, the oxide film generated from the microarc oxidation method is also porous and has a thickness of 10 μm to 20 μm [3233].

In addition to controlling the reaction conditions, it is also important to carefully monitor the precipitation process to ensure that the desired precipitation percentage is achieved. This can be done through various analytical techniques, such as X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, which can provide valuable insights into the particle size distribution, crystallinity, and purity of the titanium dioxide product.

In a 2017 study published in Scientific Reports, researchers exposed rats to human-relevant levels of E171 to examine the effects of intestinal inflammation and carcinogenesis. They saw that “a 100-day E171 treatment promoted colon microinflammation and initiated preneoplastic lesions while also fostering the growth of aberrant crypt foci in a chemically induced carcinogenesis model.” They continued: “Stimulation of immune cells isolated from Peyer’s Patches [which are clusters of lymphoid follicles found in the intestine] showed a decrease in Thelper (Th)-1 IFN-γ secretion, while splenic Th1/Th17 inflammatory responses sharply increased,” researchers wrote. “A 100-day titanium dioxide treatment promoted colon microinflammation and initiated preneoplastic lesions.” The scientists concluded: “These data should be considered for risk assessments of the susceptibility to Th17-driven autoimmune diseases and to colorectal cancer in humans exposed to TiO2 from dietary sources.”
