- Manufacturers have responded by exploring alternatives, such as natural colorants, though these often cannot match the vibrant whiteness provided by TiO2. The shift towards more natural ingredients aligns with growing consumer preferences for transparency and minimal processing in their food.
- In recent years, the demand for interior wall coatings in China has surged, driven by a combination of rapid urbanization and increasing homeowner awareness about the importance of aesthetics and health. Among various types of wall coatings, lithopone (also known as lack of lead) stands out due to its non-toxicity and excellent hiding power. This article delves into the world of Chinese interior wall coating lacking lead suppliers, providing insights into the market dynamics and considerations for potential buyers.
What does titanium dioxide do?

- Barium sulfate, chemically represented as BaSO4, is a naturally occurring mineral known as barite. When processed into a superfine form, it possesses an array of benefits that extend beyond its inexpensive nature. Its fine particle size enhances its dispersibility, leading to improved performance in various applications. This superfine variant, despite its 'cheap' label, does not compromise on quality or functionality.
Pigment grade titanium dioxide is produced at a much larger particle size than nano grade. It is used as a colourant to whiten and brighten product formulations. Nano grade titanium dioxide is manufactured into very fine (nano) particles and is transparent and colourless. It is commonly used in sunscreens to provide effective protection from potentially harmful UV rays.

Less frequently, we ingest E171 through liquids such as salad dressing, dairy products, and some artificially colored drinks. However, since E171 is insoluble, manufacturers must use other stabilizers to keep E171 suspended in liquids as an emulsion; otherwise, it will settle to the bottom.
Below are selected applications of photocatalytic pollutant decomposition processes on titanium oxide:
1. Self-cleaning surfaces: for the production of glass for spotlights, traffic lights, car mirrors, window panes, for road paints, for covering sound-absorbing screens and tunnel walls.
2. Air cleaning and odor removal: filters that are used in enclosed spaces (e.g. public toilets) or filters for air-conditioning equipment.
3. Water treatment: groundwater treatment installations, water purification installations in the intakes of drinking water from rivers.
4. Self-disinfecting materials: towels, linings, clothing, equipment in hospitals, wall surfaces of operating rooms.
5. Removal of lesions: anti-cancer therapy.
The use of titanium dioxide (TiO2) in factory settings is widespread, with this versatile compound playing a crucial role in various industrial processes. TiO2 is a naturally occurring mineral that is widely used as a white pigment in paints, coatings, plastics, paper, and other products. Its ability to effectively scatter light makes it an ideal choice for creating bright, durable, and long-lasting finishes.
The successful completion of 2022. Looking at the development of Titanium Dioxide market in this year, from the perspective of price, according to the monitoring of bulk commodity data, the price of titanium dioxide will fall in 2022. The average price of domestic titanium dioxide at the beginning of the year was 20733.33 yuan/ton, and the average price at the end of the year was 15933.33 yuan/ton. The price fell by 23.15% during the year.
2. Market analysis
Product quotation
From the perspective of market development in 2022, prices in the first half of the year are basically in a stable stage, with little fluctuation, and prices in the second half of the year are in a rapid decline stage. In November, Longqi sent a letter to raise the price to stabilize the price. At this time, the price of titanium dioxide began to stabilize and stop falling.
In the first quarter, export orders performed well, and the market confidence of titanium dioxide enterprises was good. Before the year, domestic downstream manufacturers mainly hoarded goods moderately before the year. The market rose twice, with a cumulative increase of 1.77% from January to March. The ex factory quotation of domestic rutile titanium dioxide including tax is mostly 20000-22000 yuan/ton; The ex factory quotation of anatase titanium dioxide including tax is between 18000-19500 yuan/ton. After the year, the domestic raw material sulfuric ACID price continued to rise, the enterprise cost was under pressure, and the support was strong. The titanium dioxide market confidence was fair, and the price continued to rise.
In the second quarter, the logistics management and control and the domestic market turnover were light. Affected by logistics control and other factors, transportation is relatively difficult, market supply is shrinking, traders are unstable, and the market price declines with the focus on digesting their own inventory. The cumulative decline from April to June was 3.08%. The ex factory quotation of domestic rutile titanium dioxide including tax is between 19100-22000 yuan/ton; The ex factory quotation of anatase titanium dioxide including tax is between 17800-19000 yuan/ton. The spot market of titanium ore continued to decline, the price of sulfuric acid also continued to decline, and the cost support was weak. At the same time, the performance of the downstream terminal real estate market is poor. Under the superposition of multiple negative factors, the titanium dioxide market fell.
In the third quarter, Longqi guided the price reduction and the titanium dioxide market fell sharply. 7-9 The cumulative decline was 19.85%. The ex factory quotation of domestic rutile titanium dioxide including tax is mostly between 15500-17000 yuan/ton; The quotation of anatase titanium dioxide is between 14500-15500 yuan/ton. Due to the limited power supply and other factors, the titanium dioxide enterprises in southwest China have reduced their production. The market price of raw sulfuric acid fell rapidly, and the cost support was weak. In addition, the domestic titanium dioxide market demand continues to be sluggish, and the manufacturer's inventory pressure is still large.
In the fourth quarter, Dragon Enterprise sent a letter in November to promote stability. The cumulative decline was 2.55% from October 12. The titanium dioxide market is about to enter the off-season, and the demand market for coatings is tepid, especially in the northern market. In November, the group announced that the price would rise, and the prices offered by various manufacturers were flexible, so it was more meaningful to stop the decline. Most domestic rutile titanium dioxide prices are between 15000-17500 yuan/ton; The quotation of anatase titanium dioxide is about 14000-14500 yuan/ton. The price of titanium concentrate in Panxi increased. More than 20 domestic titanium dioxide enterprises sent letters to announce the increase, and the international giants Chemurs and Tronox announced the reduction of titanium dioxide production in the fourth quarter, which also benefited the domestic titanium dioxide market and stabilized the market on the whole.
Developing new Lithopone formulations, one that enhances the properties of the existing Lithopone is anticipated to boost the demand for Lithopone white pigment during the forecast period. Reinforced Lithopone is one such development, wherein a copolymer is added to the polymerization reaction to yield Lithopone with increased weather resistance. Moreover, development of nano-scale Lithopone is anticipated to attract market interest during the forecast period.
Lithopone 30%, in any type of rubber, not only reduces the cost of partial substitution of TiO2 but also increases industrial production and improves the durability and the thermal and mechanical resistance of the finished product.
