Titanium dioxide is manufactured through two fundamentally different chemical routes: the sulfate process and the chloride process. Each uses different raw materials, different chemistry, and produces TiO₂ with distinct characteristics. Understanding these differences is essential for any buyer making grade selection decisions.

Anatase titanium dioxide is one of the three naturally occurring crystal forms of TiO₂ (alongside rutile and brookite), characterized by a tetragonal crystal structure with a refractive index of 2.52. While rutile's tighter crystal lattice gives it superior UV resistance and higher opacity, anatase's more open structure produces different properties that are specifically advantageous in certain industrial applications.

Recently, we've noticed a clear change in how customers purchase titanium dioxide.

TiOâ‚‚ provides whiteness, opacity, UV protection, and visual appeal in plastics. The global plastics industry consumes ~35-40% of all TiOâ‚‚ produced. Market split: masterbatch (45%), PVC profiles/pipes (25%), packaging films (15%), engineering plastics (10%), other (5%). Three parameters consistently determine success: dispersion quality, yellowness index, and UV durability.

On May 23, the 2026 Heshan Subdistrict Employee Fun Sports Meet was successfully held, and the Xiamen Zhonghe Trading team actively took part in the event.

Overall, this year’s exhibition maintained a high level of attendance, with a visitor profile still dominated by professional buyers. Interactions were fast-paced, focused, and purpose-driven.
