wholesale coating titanium dioxide
The production process of lithopone involves a sophisticated synthesis of zinc sulfide and barium sulfate, resulting in a pigment that boasts high whiteness, opacity, and heat stability. The ratio of ZnS to BaSO4 can be adjusted to cater to specific applications, with some formulations containing up to 70% zinc sulfide and 30% barium sulfate. This flexibility makes lithopone an adaptable solution for manufacturers seeking optimal performance in their products.

One of the main applications of titanium dioxide in paper is in the production of high-quality coated papers. Titanium dioxide is often added to the coating formulations to enhance the whiteness and brightness of the paper surface. This helps to improve the print quality of the paper, as it provides a smooth and even surface for ink to adhere to. The high opacity of titanium dioxide also helps to prevent show-through, making the printed text or images more vibrant and legible.
Australian researchers examined how titanium dioxide as a food additive affected gut microbiota in mice by orally administering it in drinking water. The study, published in the journal Frontiers in Nutrition in 2019, found the treatment could “alter the release of bacterial metabolites in vivo and affect the spatial distribution of commensal bacteria in vitro by promoting biofilm formation. We also found reduced expression of the colonic mucin 2 gene, a key component of the intestinal mucus layer, and increased expression of the beta defensin gene, indicating that titanium dioxide significantly impacts gut homeostasis.” The changes were then linked to colonic inflammation, along with a higher expression of inflammatory cytokines, which are signal proteins that help with regulation. The researchers concluded that titanium dioxide “impairs gut homeostasis which may in turn prime the host for disease development.”
The most common foods containing titanium dioxide are chewing gum, candies, pastries, chocolates, coffee creamers, and cake decorations (1Trusted Source, 3Trusted Source).
