According to Procurement Resource, the price of Titanium dioxide is estimated to depict a declining trends in the upcoming quarter. The price trends will be mostly affected by the weakened demand from the paint and coatings industries and the rise in global inflation.

“Unlike some other chemicals used in food, titanium dioxide has no nutritive, preservative, or food safety function—its use is purely cosmetic,” said CSPI principal scientist for additives and supplements, Thomas Galligan. “The prospect of titanium dioxide nanoparticles damaging DNA is concerning enough for us to recommend consumers avoid foods that have it.”

The report provides insights into the landscape of the lithopone industry at the global level. The report also provides a segment-wise and region-wise breakup of the global lithopone industry. Additionally, it also provides the price analysis of feedstocks used in the manufacturing of lithopone, along with the industry profit margins.

Studies of titanium dioxide as a food additive suggest health dangers

In terms of titanium concentrate, the market in the Panxi region was quite stable in the first few weeks of the month. The overall state of the titanium ore market was satisfactory, and the price remained stable. The price of 38-grade titanium ore without tax was approximately 1,500-1,530 RMB/MT as of the 13th of January, while it was 2,220-2,260 RMB/MT for 46-grade titanium ore and 2,500-2,550 RMB/MT for 47-grade titanium ore.

Caiqing Technology is a specialized production of titanium dioxide enterprises, the company will titanium dioxide this product as the company's core industry. Caiqing technology with the regional sulfuric acid scale advantage, with titanium ore as raw material, actively introduce the top technology at home and abroad, the use of mature sulfuric acid titanium dioxide production process to produce high quality rutile titanium dioxide products and anatase titanium dioxide products, its production process, equipment and automation control are in the domestic leading level. Caiqing technology will pay attention to the technology of titanium dioxide research and development, to provide high-quality titanium dioxide for the paint industry to contribute their own strength. Thank the China Paint Association visit, we must live up to the trust of Caiqing technology titanium dioxide brand! Thanks!

Lithopone in natural and synthetic elastomers 

One of the key advantages of using titanium dioxide in rubber is its ability to enhance the whiteness and brightness of rubber products. This is especially important in applications where aesthetic appeal is a priority, such as in the manufacturing of white or light-colored rubber goods. The high opacity of titanium dioxide allows for better hiding power, ensuring a uniform and attractive finish on rubber surfaces.

Currently, titanium dioxide as a food additive is classified as GRAS, or “generally recognized as safe.”
