In a study published in 2022 in the journal Particle and Fibre Technologyresearchers examined the impact of maternal exposure to titanium dioxide nanoparticles in newborn offspring mice. They found that “a chronic exposure to TiO2 NPs during pregnancy alters the respiratory activity of offspring, characterized by an abnormally elevated rate of breathing.” Breathing was also shown to be “significantly and abnormally accelerated,” and the ability for neural circuitry to effectively adjust breathing rates was impaired. The researchers concluded: “Our findings thus demonstrate that a maternal exposure to TiO2 NPs during pregnancy affects the normal development and operation of the respiratory centers in progeny.”

The paint industry is a dynamic and innovative sector that relies heavily on high-quality raw materials to produce pigments with exceptional performance characteristics. One such key ingredient is titanium dioxide (TiO2), and when we talk about TiO2 in the Chinese context, the name Lomon China stands out prominently. The R996 grade of titanium dioxide, produced by Lomon China, has become a benchmark for the global paint manufacturing sector due to its exceptional quality and application-specific benefits.

The manufacturing process of lithopone involves several steps, including sulfide precipitation, grinding, classification, and packaging. During the sulfide precipitation stage, zinc sulfide and barium sulfate are reacted in an aqueous solution under controlled conditions to form a precipitate of lithopone. The precipitate is then washed, dried, and ground to the desired particle size distribution. Finally, the ground pigment is classified to remove any oversized or undersized particles and packaged for storage and transportation.
