Both calcium carbonate and titanium dioxide play crucial roles in various industries, but they are used for different purposes. Calcium carbonate is primarily used as a filler and pigment, while titanium dioxide is used as a whitening agent and pigment. Additionally, titanium dioxide is more expensive to produce than calcium carbonate due to its synthetic nature and complex manufacturing process.
