Titanium dioxide (titania, TiO2) is a chemically inert, semiconducting material with remarkable properties, including its ability to exhibit photocatalytic activity when exposed to light with energy equal to or higher than its band-gap energy. These unique characteristics make titanium dioxide suitable for a wide range of applications across various industries.
for these reasons, and because of the relatively low price of the raw material and its processing, titania has gained widespread attention over recent decades.
During recent decades, TiO2 powders have begun to appear in many applications, mainly due to their ability to confer whiteness and opacity on various products, such as paints, papers, and cosmetics.
Its high technological attractiveness originates from its light-scattering properties and very high refractive index. This means that relatively low levels of the pigment are required to achieve a white, opaque coating.
