Method of producing improved lithopone
Titanium dioxide mainly comes from the earth’s crust, where it’s actually the ninth most common element. When processed, it becomes a fine powder with a vibrant white pigment.
In terms of manufacturers, there are many companies that produce calcium carbonate and titanium dioxide. Some of the top manufacturers of calcium carbonate include Omya, Imerys, and Minerals Technologies. These companies have large mining operations and production facilities in regions where calcium carbonate is abundant.

Lithopone is the ideal combination of the white pigment zinc sulfide and the white spacer Blanc fixe. Due to the particle distribution of the ZnS (0.35 µm) and BaSO4 (0.8 -1.0 µm), which is the result of a co-precipitation (not mixing) and co-calcination, a high packing density is achieved, which in turn gives Lithopone its low resin demand and excellent rheological properties.
Understanding Gravimetric Analysis
All in all, Titanium Dioxide is a famous sunscreen agent and for good reason, it gives broad spectrum UV protection (best at UVB and UVA II), it's highly stable, and it has a good safety profile. It's definitely one of the best UV-filter agents we have today, especially in the US where new-generation Tinosorb filters are not (yet) approved.
