  • At the present JECFA meeting, the committee considered additional toxicological studies relevant to the safety assessment of the chemical that investigated its toxicokinetics, acute toxicity, short-term toxicity, long-term toxicity and carcinogenicity, genotoxicity, and reproductive and developmental toxicity, as well as special studies addressing its short-term initiation/promotion potential for colon cancer. The experts acknowledged that a large number of toxicological studies have been conducted using test materials, including nanoparticles, having size distributions and physico-chemical properties not comparable to real-world uses of titanium dioxide as a food additive. The studies on non-representative materials were evaluated by JECFA, but the committee concluded that such studies are not relevant to the safety assessment of the additive.

  • Lithopone is manufactured by a process (Fig. 1) in which barium sulfide solution is prepared by reducing barite ore (BaSO 4) with carbon and leaching the resulting mass.

  • First, the ammonia leaching method is used as a technical means for the effective treatment of acid leaching slag, and the nano nitrite powder is prepared under a weak alkaline ( Ή 8 8.5 to 10) ammonia environment. In an alkaline environment, some metal impurities such as The solubility of Ca, Mg, Fe and Al hydroxides is low, and the impurities entering the final immersion liquid in the selective leaching of ammonia-ammonium sulfate are reduced, thereby ensuring the quality of the product; the traditional acid method for preparing lithopone is because of the zinc calcination. In the roasting and reduction process of the alkalized alkali, the elemental sulfur and sulfite are more or less produced, and the prepared white powder has a yellowish color, and the metathesis reaction of the patent is carried out in an ammonia solution (alkaline). The final product obtained is sulfate, which is quickly and thoroughly added by desulfurization through 3⁄40 2 , and the whiteness of the product can be ensured without high temperature calcination; the equipment requirement is lower than that of sulfuric acid leaching, and the ordinary steel leaching tank can complete the leaching; The environmental pollution problem of acid leaching residue, especially effectively solves the environmental pollution of heavy metals such as zinc, copper, lead, cadmium and arsenic in acid leaching residue and the influence of acid ions on the storage environment. Realize the recycling of high-value metal zinc in acid leaching slag, realize the acidity improvement of soil and have the comprehensive advantages of low cost, energy saving and environmental protection.

  • In food, titanium dioxide has a few different uses. Most notably, its food-grade form is used as a colorant to enhance and brighten the color of white foods such as dairy products, candy, frosting, and the powder on donuts. For foods that are sensitive to UV light, titanium dioxide is used for food safety purposes to prevent spoilage and increase the shelf life of food.

  • The author thanks Marco Leona, Scientist-in-Charge of the Department of Scientific Research at the Metropolitan Museum of Art for conducting fluorescence spectrometry on Wheel of Fortune and a valuable discussion of the research, as well as Silvia Centeno, Research Scientist at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, who performed Raman analysis on the watercolors and also contributed her insight. The phenomenon of the phosphorescing lithopone was originally discovered during the author's fellowship in the Sherman Fairchild Center for the Conservation of Works on Paper, funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. The author thanks all her colleagues for their ideas and support during the research of this paper, and special thanks to Rachel Mustalish for her assistance in editing this work.
