Manufacturing
Titanium dioxide is a naturally occurring white pigment known for its exceptional brightness and high refractive index, which gives it excellent opacity and light-scattering properties. It is widely used in paints, coatings, plastics, and paper to provide whiteness and durability. In addition to its role as a pigment, titanium dioxide is also used in sunscreens due to its ability to block UV radiation. Its chemical stability, non-toxicity, and versatility make it a staple ingredient in many consumer products, including cosmetics and food additives.
