Titanium dioxide is considered to be the world's best performance of a kind of white inorganic pigment, widely used in coatings, plastics, paper, printing ink, chemical fiber, rubber, cosmetics, chemical fiber, electronics, ceramics, enamel, welding electrode, alloy, glass, medicine, food and other industries.

Titanium dioxide
1, the paint industry is the most used titanium dioxide industry, especially rutile titanium dioxide, most of which is consumed by the paint industry. The paint made of titanium dioxide has bright color, high hiding power, strong coloring power, provincial amount, and many varieties, which can protect the stability of the medium, and can enhance the mechanical strength and adhesion of the paint film, prevent cracks, prevent ultraviolet light and water penetration, and extend the life of the paint film.

2, plastics and rubber industry is the second largest application of titanium dioxide industry, adding titanium dioxide in plastics, can improve the heat resistance of plastic products, light resistance, weather resistance, so that the physical and chemical properties of plastic products are improved, enhance the mechanical strength of products, extend the service life. Titanium dioxide in the rubber industry as a colorant, but also has a reinforcing, anti-aging, filling role. Titanium dioxide is added to white and colored rubber products, under sunlight, sun resistance, no cracking, no discoloration, large elongation and acid and alkali resistance. Rubber titanium dioxide, mainly used in automobile tires and rubber shoes, rubber floors, gloves, sports equipment, generally based on anatase.

The use of titanium dioxide
3, the paper industry is the third largest application industry of titanium dioxide, titanium dioxide as a paper filler, mainly used in high-grade paper and thin paper. Adding titanium dioxide to the paper can make the paper have better whiteness, good luster, high strength, thin and smooth, not penetrate when printing, and light weight. Titanium dioxide for paper making generally uses anatase titanium dioxide without surface treatment, which can play the role of fluorescent whitening agent and increase the whiteness of paper. However, laminated paper requires the use of surface-treated rutile titanium dioxide to meet the requirements of light and heat resistance.

Titanium dioxide use
4, titanium dioxide is an indispensable white pigment in advanced ink. The ink containing titanium dioxide is durable and does not change color, has good surface wettability and is easy to disperse. The titanium dioxide used in the ink industry has rutile type and anatase type. /5, the textile and chemical fiber industry is another important application area of titanium dioxide. Titanium dioxide for chemical fiber is mainly used as a matting agent. Anatase is generally used because anatase is softer than gold red. Titanium dioxide for chemical fiber generally does not need surface treatment, but some special varieties need surface treatment in order to reduce the photochemical action of titanium dioxide and avoid the degradation of the fiber in the photocatalysis of titanium dioxide.

5, enamel industry is an important application field of titanium dioxide, enamel grade titanium dioxide with high purity, good whiteness, fresh color, uniform particle size, strong refractive index and high achromatosity, with strong opacities and opacities, so that the coating after enamelling is thin, smooth and acid resistant, in the enamel manufacturing process can be mixed evenly with other materials, no caking, easy melting and other advantages.

6. Titanium dioxide is also widely used in cosmetics. Because titanium dioxide is non-toxic and far superior to lead white, almost all kinds of fragrance powders use titanium dioxide to replace lead white and zinc white. Only 5%-8% titanium dioxide can be added to the powder to get permanent white, so that the spice is more slippery, with adhesion, absorption and hiding power. Titanium dioxide in gouache and cold cream can reduce the feeling of greasy and transparent. Titanium dioxide can also be used in various other spices, sunscreens, saponins, white soaps and toothpastes. Cosmetic grade titanium dioxide is divided into oil-based and water-based titanium dioxide. Due to its stable chemical properties, high refractive index, high opacity, high hiding power, good whiteness, and non-toxic, it is widely used in the field of cosmetics, beauty whitening effect.
