Usage
1. Pharmaceutical Industry Tablet and Capsule Coating: Acts as a white pigment and opacifier to enhance visual appeal and mask the color of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). UV Protection: Shields light-sensitive medications from ultraviolet (UV) radiation, improving stability and shelf life. Excipient Function: Used as an inert filler or diluent in solid dosage forms. 2. Cosmetic and Personal Care Sunscreen Agent: Acts as a physical UV blocker due to its ability to reflect and scatter UVA and UVB rays. Pigment in Makeup: Provides whiteness and brightness in products like foundation, face powder, and eye shadow. Toothpaste: Used as a whitening and opacifying agent in dental care products. 3. Food Industry (Regulated Use) Colorant (E171): Used as a white pigment in candies, chewing gum, dairy products, and icing. Note: Usage is restricted or banned in some regions (e.g., EU). 4. Paints and Coatings White Pigment: Provides opacity, brightness, and UV resistance in paints, coatings, and plastics (industrial-grade TiO , not API). 5. Plastics and Paper Opacifier: Enhances whiteness and opacity in plastics and paper products (industrial applications). Note: Only pharmaceutical-grade Titanium Dioxide (API grade) should be used for medicinal and cosmetic formulations. Other grades (industrial) are not suitable for human use.
