ʻO ka Titanium dioxide kahi mea kemika inorganic, i hoʻohana nui ʻia i ka hana ʻoihana e like me nā uhi, plastics, rubber, papermaking, paʻi ʻīnika, nā mea kemika, a me nā mea hoʻonaninani. ʻElua mau ʻano aniani o ka Titanium dioxide: rutile a me anatase. Rutile titanium dioxide, ʻo ia hoʻi, R-type titanium dioxide; anatase titanium dioxide, ʻo ia hoʻi, A-type titanium dioxide.
ʻO ka Titanium-type titanium dioxide no ka pigment-grade titanium dioxide, nona nā hiʻohiʻona o ka mana huna ikaika, ka mana kiʻekiʻe kiʻekiʻe, ke kūʻē i ka wā kahiko a me ke kūpaʻa maikaʻi. Anatase titanium dioxide, ka inoa kemika titanium dioxide, ka hoʻohālike mole Ti02, ke kaumaha mole 79.88. ʻO ka pauka keʻokeʻo, pili pili 3.84. ʻAʻole maikaʻi ka lōʻihi e like me ka rutile titanium dioxide, maikaʻi ka pale ʻana o ka māmā, a maʻalahi ka pulverize ka papa hoʻopili ma hope o ka hui ʻana me ka resin. No laila, hoʻohana maʻamau ia no nā mea o loko, ʻo ia hoʻi, hoʻohana nui ʻia no nā huahana i hele ʻole i ka lā pololei.
