The EU expert panel did not identify an immediate health concern linked to TiO2 when used as a food additive. However, due mainly to uncertainties concerning the safety of TiO2 nanoparticles, the panel concluded that TiO2 as a food additive (E171) could no longer be considered safe.
In May 2021, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) published an opinion that stated that titanium dioxide can no longer be considered safe when used as a food additive.
However, the market could not sustain these high prices and strived for equilibrium, causing the prices to fall. Further, after the complete removal of restrictions, the factories churned out products at a much faster pace than the market offtakes. Hence, the manufacturers reduced their quotations to maintain positive product movement in the market. The spot prices of titanium dioxide averaged around 2264 USD/MT in June’23 in the Chinese market.
In the meantime, some big manufacturers boosted their product pricing to better their margins, such as Venator, which increased its titanium dioxide prices by roughly 160 USD /MT for the third quarter of 2021 in the North America region. Overall, prices for Anatase grade in the United States hovered about 3485 USD /MT through the end of June.

double row thrust ball bearing. The flat seat variant is suitable for applications with uniform load distribution, while the spherical seat type offers self-aligning capabilities, accommodating misalignments in the shaft and housing.
Additionally, the use of rollers instead of balls allows for higher load capacities and improved shock resistance, making these bearings suitable for impact-prone environments Additionally, the use of rollers instead of balls allows for higher load capacities and improved shock resistance, making these bearings suitable for impact-prone environmentsroller thrust bearing.
