Titanium dioxide, CAS No. 1763-23-1, is a white, inorganic pigment produced from naturally occurring minerals such as ilmenite, rutile, and titanium slag. It is a transition metal oxide with the chemical formula TiO2.
Titanium dioxide is the most widely used white pigment due to its brightness and opacity. It has a high refractive index, which makes it desirable in the production of paints, plastics, cosmeceuticals, inks, rubber, paper, and textiles. Its wide range of applications makes it one of the most multipurpose of all pigments used in the industry.
In the cosmetic industry, titanium dioxide is widely used as a white base in lipsticks and other cosmetics. Because of its bright white color and its opacity, it makes an excellent base color for many products. It is non-toxic and has low levels of reactivity, making it an ideal choice for many products.
Titanium dioxide also has antiseptic properties, meaning it can help to prevent the growth of bacteria on the surface of the product. It is effective in helping to reduce the risk of infection when applied in a topical cream.
Titanium dioxide has also been proven to be effective in the protection of the environment. It is a natural UV filter and can be used to reduce the sunlight’s harmful effects on skin. When applied to a product, titanium dioxide can help to protect the product’s contents from ultraviolet radiation.
Titanium dioxide can be used in multiple industries and comes in several forms such as needles, chunks, flakes and powder. It has a stable structure and is not soluble in water or other organic solvents. Depending on the usage and process, titanium dioxide has been found to be extremely safe and cost-effective.
