Frequently asked questions
What is titanium dioxide (TiO₂) commonly used for?
Titanium dioxide is primarily used as a white pigment in paints, coatings, plastics, and paper for its opacity and UV-blocking properties, as well as in sunscreens and cosmetics for its light-scattering and photoprotective effects.
What is the molecular formula and molecular weight of titanium dioxide?
The molecular formula is TiO₂, and the molecular weight is 79.87 g/mol.
What safety classification does titanium dioxide fall under, and how should it be handled?
Titanium dioxide is classified with the signal word 'Danger'. Its hazard statements are H351 (suspected of causing cancer, by inhalation) and H373 (may cause damage to organs through prolonged or repeated exposure). Handle in a well-ventilated area or with respiratory protection and avoid dust generation.
What grades of titanium dioxide does Molekula supply, and are there specialty forms (e.g., anatase, rutile) available?
Molekula supplies industrial-grade titanium dioxide (primarily rutile form) for pigments and coatings. Anatase-grade or nanoparticle forms are not currently stocked; please inquire for custom availability.
Can Molekula supply titanium dioxide in bulk quantities, and what are typical packaging options?
Yes, titanium dioxide is available in bulk (25kg bags, 1MT super sacks, or drums) for large-scale industrial applications. Minimum order quantities may apply—contact sales for bulk pricing and logistics.
What documentation is provided with a titanium dioxide order from Molekula?
Each order includes a Certificate of Analysis (CoA), Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS/SDS), and batch-specific documentation for traceability. For bulk orders, a Packing List and Transportation of Dangerous Goods (TDG/IMDG) documentation may also be provided.
