Description

Since titanium dioxide pigment shows higher refractive index and has finer particle size than other white pigments, like Zinc oxide, Lithophone and White lead, its optical properties such as whiteness, opacity and tinting strength are excellent. Furthermore, titanium dioxide also shows no toxicity, excellent heat and light stability, and chemical resistance. Therefore, it is called “King of white pigments” and accounts for as much as 70% of the whole white pigments.<br>Titanium dioxide pigment is used in various fields; paints, printing inks, plastics, paper, rubber, synthetic fibers and cosmetics.<br>This report explains pigmental properties featuring history and basic characteristics of titanium dioxide. In addition, recent and future development of newly categorized titanium dioxide not as pigment but as functional materials by utilizing unique properties (UV shielding capability, light scattering effect and photoactivity), is discussed from the angle of particle size.
