Titanium Oxide

Titanium dioxide, is an inorganic compound, chemical formula TiO2, is a white solid or powder amphoteric oxide, molecular weight 79.866, non-toxic, the best opacity, the best whiteness and brightness, is considered to be the best performance white pigment in the world today. Titanium white has strong adhesion, is not easy to chemically change, and is always snow-white. Widely used in coatings, plastics, papermaking, printing inks, chemical fiber, rubber, cosmetics and other industries. It has a high melting point and is also used to make refractory glass, glazes, enamel, terracotta, high-temperature resistant experimental utensils, etc. Titanium dioxide can be extracted from rutile by acid decomposition or decomposed by titanium tetrachloride. Titanium dioxide has three allotropes in nature: rutile, anatase and plate titanium, in addition to several synthetic crystal forms.
