In addition to sustainability, chemical pigment manufacturers also need to focus on creating pigments that offer high performance and durability. Pigments need to withstand various environmental factors, such as sunlight, heat, and moisture, without losing their color or fading over time. This requires extensive testing and quality control measures to ensure that the pigments meet the industry standards and requirements for different applications.

China, as a global manufacturing hub, plays a significant role in the production and pricing of various industrial materials, including lithopone pigments. Lithopone, a versatile white pigment, is widely used in industries like coatings, plastics, printing inks, and paper due to its excellent whiteness, opacity, and cost-effectiveness. It is a combination of zinc sulfide and barium sulfate, offering a cost-efficient alternative to titanium dioxide.

TiO2 comes in many different forms. However, only a few of these forms are considered food-grade (acceptable to be added to food). Many studies that raised concern about the safety of TiO2, including the concern for genotoxicity, used forms of TiO2 that are not considered acceptable for use in food and have different properties than food-grade TiO2. Other studies did use food-grade TiO2, but took steps to break the material down into smaller particles than what would normally be found in food.
