Titanium Dioxide

This is an automatic translation

Titanium dioxide, an amorphous white powder, is a natural mineral that is very present on earth.

It has a high refractive index and is able to absorb, reflect and disperse sunlight, which is why it is used in solar products.

It is part of the so-called physical filters, shielding substances formed by small mineral particles capable of reflecting the sun's rays. Compared to the widespread chemical filters, the physical ones are more sustainable for the environment.

In sunscreen products, titanium dioxide can be used as a UV filter at a maximum allowable concentration of 25%.

In cosmetics, this mineral can also be used as an opacifier or as a white dye.
