For research published in 2022 study in the journal Food and Chemical Toxicology, scientists examined “the genotoxicity and the intracellular reactive oxygen species induction by physiologically relevant concentrations of three different TiO2 nanomaterials in Caco-2 and HT29-MTX-E12 intestinal cells, while considering the potential influence of the digestion process in the NMs’ physiochemical characteristics.” They found a “DNA-damaging effect dependent on the nanomaterial,” along with the micronucleus assay suggesting “effects on chromosomal integrity, an indicator of cancer risk, in the HT29-MTX-E12 cells, for all the tested TiO2 nanomaterials.” Researchers concluded that the results showcase “evidence of concern” regarding titanium dioxide used as a food additive.

One of the most well-known uses of titanium dioxide powder is in the production of paints and coatings. Titanium dioxide is a popular pigment due to its excellent opacity, brightness, and durability. It is commonly used in architectural paints, automotive coatings, and other applications where colorfastness and weather resistance are important. Suppliers who can provide a consistent, high-quality titanium dioxide powder are essential for the paint and coating industry to produce top-notch products.
