Titanium dioxide is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula TiO2, and its appearance is white powder. It is non-toxic, best opacity, best whiteness and brilliance. TiO2 has many excellent properties, such as photocatalysis, semi-permanence, hydrophilicity, acid and alkali resistance, responsiveness to different visible light, weather resistance, and oxidation resistance. So titanium dioxide powder is widely used in plastics, coatings, paper, printing ink, chemical fiber, rubber, cosmetics and other industries. As an important white pigment and porcelain glaze, the amount of titanium dioxide accounts for more than 80% of all white pigments.
TiO2 titanium dioxide has two main structures: titanium dioxide rutile (R type) and titanium dioxide anatase (A type). And rutile TiO2 has a compact structure, is relatively stable, and has low optical activity, so it has good weather resistance. At the same time, rutile titanium dioxide has high hiding power and color reduction power, so it is widely used in high-end fields such as coatings, plastics, inks, papermaking, rubber, chemical fibers, cosmetics, etc. Compared with rutile TiO2, anatase titanium dioxide has relatively lower hiding power and whiteness, but has good dispersibility and is easy to process. And it is mainly used in low-end plastics, architectural coatings, paper and other fields. By the way, As a leading supplier and exporter in China, Fengbai company can supply these brands of titanium dioxide, such as Lomon, Billions, DONGFANG, PANGANG,etc. Please check the popular models below:

Main Uses of Titanium Dioxide (TiO2)
As a food white pigment, titanium dioxide can be used to color foods such as preserved fruits, jellies, fried foods, chocolate, etc. The usage should generally not exceed 1% of the weight of the food.
This chemical is non-toxic, and titanium dioxide is used to replace lead white and zinc white in almost all kinds of perfume powders. We only need to add 5% to 8% of titanium dioxide to perfume powder to get permanent white, making the perfume more smooth, adhesive, absorbent and covering.
Titanium dioxide for chemical fiber is mainly used as a matting agent. Because anatase titanium dioxide is softer than titanium dioxide rutile, titanium dioxide anatase is generally used. It does not need surface treatment, but some special varieties need surface treatment in order to reduce the photochemical effect of titanium dioxide and avoid fiber degradation under the action of titanium dioxide photocatalysis.
Main Performance Characteristics
Titanium dioxide (TiO₂) is an important inorganic compound with a variety of unique performance characteristics that make it widely used in many fields. Here are some of the main performance characteristics of titanium dioxide:
