The CaCO3 and TiO2 factory not only provides a reliable supply of these materials to industries but also contributes to the local economy by creating job opportunities and generating revenue. The factory employs skilled workers in various departments such as production, quality control, and maintenance. It also collaborates with suppliers and distributors to ensure efficient transportation and delivery of CaCO3 and TiO2 to customers worldwide.

Lithopone is the re-discovered white pigment with functional properties suitable for several applications.

French researchers studied how and where E171 nanoparticles enter the bloodstream, first studying the route through pigs and then in vitro with human buccal cells, for a 2023 study published in the journal Nanotoxicology. The research showed that the nanoparticles absorbed quickly through the mouth and then into the bloodstream, before damaging DNA and hindering cell regeneration.

Relative to a lot of other things that people should be concerned about, titanium dioxide in my mind, is really low on the list. I would be more worried about some substitutes that people are using for titanium dioxide that don't have decades of research associated with it, said Westerhoff.

A 2022 review on past studies of titanium dioxide and rat lung cancer, for instance, said the original study was under extreme conditions and its effects were not replicated in other animal species. Additionally, the review concluded that the few studies which did directly focus on titanium dioxide's impact on humans did not end up showing any increased cancer risk.
