TiO2pohjaisia

TiO2pohjaisia is a Finnish term that translates to "TiO2-based" or "based on TiO2." It refers to materials, substances, or products that utilize titanium dioxide (TiO2) as a primary component or active ingredient. Titanium dioxide is a naturally occurring oxide of titanium, widely recognized for its white pigment properties, excellent UV-blocking capabilities, and photocatalytic activity.

In various industries, TiO2-based materials are employed for their distinct characteristics. In paints and coatings, TiO2 is the most common white pigment, providing opacity and brightness. It is also used in sunscreens and cosmetics to protect the skin from harmful ultraviolet radiation. Furthermore, the photocatalytic properties of TiO2 have led to its application in self-cleaning surfaces, air and water purification systems, and even in certain medical devices for its antimicrobial effects. Research continues to explore new applications and enhance the performance of TiO2-based materials in areas such as renewable energy and advanced manufacturing. The specific properties and applications of a TiO2-based material depend heavily on its form, particle size, and any surface modifications or dopants it may possess.
