Description
Titanium Dioxide is a high-purity white pigment powder, also known as Pigment White 6. It is an inorganic oxide with an exceptionally high refractive index, which gives it unrivalled opacity and whitening power at very low use levels. In foods and pharmaceuticals, it is used to provide a clean, uniform white color and to shield light-sensitive ingredients in coatings, sugar shells and tablet films. The powder is chemically inert, stable across pH and heat, and disperses evenly into both aqueous and solid systems. Produced under USP 43 specifications with strict limits on heavy metals and microbiology, it offers a dependable, globally accepted whitening and opacifying agent with a five-year shelf life for food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic manufacturers. It meets the purity expectations of both food and pharmaceutical manufacturers. Produced to USP 43 standards, it carries a five-year shelf life, one of the longest in the ingredient industry, which simplifies inventory planning. The powder disperses evenly to give films and coatings a flawless, uniform finish. In practice a fraction of a percent delivers full opacity in sugar coatings and film layers, so dosing errors stay small and visual batches stay consistent. It also shields light-sensitive actives in tablet cores. Consistent batch-to-batch quality is maintained through defined raw-material sourcing and in-process control, protecting formula stability for industrial buyers. How Titanium Dioxide works: titanium dioxide has one of the highest refractive indices of any material, which means light scatters intensely at every particle surface. The visual result is complete opacity and brilliant whiteness at use levels far below any other whitening agent. In pharmaceutical coatings it hides the color of cores and protects light-sensitive actives; in confectionery it gives sugar shells and icings their clean white finish. Practical guidance: disperse it in coating suspensions at the fraction-of-a-percent levels typical of film and sugar coatings; use it in capsule shells for opacity and light protection; whiten icings, gum and candy coatings; and apply it in cosmetic powders and creams for coverage. Quality assurance: produced under USP 43 standards with assay, acid-soluble impurities, heavy-metal limits and microbiology tested per batch, with documentation supplied. The five-year shelf life - exceptional among ingredients - simplifies inventory management for pharmaceutical and confectionery manufacturers alike. Specification highlights: it is packed in 25kg/bag with a minimum order quantity of 1000kg. Certificates of analysis accompany every shipment, and sample supply, specification customization and flexible payment terms are available for qualified buyers, supported by the standardized seven-step service process from inquiry to after-sales support. Quality system overview: production follows the food-grade or pharmacopeia standards listed in the specification, with defined raw-material sourcing, in-process checks and final release testing on every batch. Purity, heavy-metal and microbiological results are documented, and the complete dossier - specification, certificate of analysis and batch records - is available to support buyer audits and regulatory dossiers. Original packaging is maintained through storage and shipping to protect the product, and shelf life is stated on the specification. Buyers qualify once and rely on the same documented quality for every subsequent order.
Applications
It whitens confectionery coatings, sugar shells, icings and chewing gum. Pharmaceutical makers use it in tablet coatings and capsule shells for opacity and light protection. Cosmetic and personal care products use it in powders, creams and oral care formulations, and some packaging and ink applications use it as a brightening pigment.
Advantages
Its unmatched opacity means tiny doses deliver clean, consistent whiteness, keeping cost-in-use low and formulations simple. Chemical inertness ensures stability across processing and storage without interactions with other ingredients. USP 43 compliance and a five-year shelf life make it a dependable, low-inventory-risk choice for color-critical products.
