Titanium dioxide (TiO2) concrete has gained attention in the construction industry due to its ability to reduce air pollution, self-clean, and enhance durability. To improve its effectiveness further, please consider the following strategies:

1. Tio2 Concrete Made from Mineral Titanium Dioxide or Titanium Dioxide Particles

    Titanium dioxide concrete can be obtained in two ways: using mineral titanium dioxide or adding titanium dioxide particles to the concrete mix. Mineral titanium dioxide is naturally occurring and is typically obtained through mining and processing. Its application in concrete is mainly as a filler or additive. Another method involves adding titanium dioxide particles to the concrete, where they can be evenly dispersed. This approach utilizes titanium dioxide particles to facilitate the decomposition of harmful substances in the concrete, thereby purifying the air, suppressing pollutants, and degrading organic compounds.

2. Tio2 ConcreteCombined with Lithopone Powder

    Titanium dioxide is used to adjust the overall color and brightness of concrete, while lithopone powder is used to give concrete specific colors such as red, yellow, or brown. By using both simultaneously, a wider range of colors can be achieved. In some construction projects, besides color, the decorative effect of the concrete surface also needs to be considered. lithopone powder can create natural textures and finishes on the concrete surface, while titanium dioxide can make the colors more even and vivid. Some buildings may require specific functional properties of concrete, such as slip resistance, waterproofing, or durability. In such cases, the combination of titanium dioxide concrete pigment and lithopone powder can meet both color and functional requirements.

Tio2 Concrete Combined with Barium Sulfate Powder

    In situations where high whiteness and optical performance are required, such as building hospitals, laboratories, museums, etc., it is often chosen to use titanium dioxide concrete and barium sulfate powder simultaneously. This can ensure the brightness and color stability of the building's exterior.

    On some special occasions, such as nuclear power plants, radioactive medical facilities, etc., it is necessary to build buildings with radiation shielding functions. At this point, titanium dioxide concrete and barium sulfate can complement each other to provide stronger radiation shielding effects. In addition, in some buildings that require high fire performance, such as high-rise buildings, warehouses, etc., the method of simultaneously using titanium dioxide concrete and barium sulfate is often used. This can enhance the fire resistance of building materials and improve the safety of the building. In some special environments, such as seaside and high-temperature areas, building materials need to have stronger weather resistance and corrosion resistance. At this point, the simultaneous use of titanium dioxide concrete pigments and barium sulfate can provide better weather resistance and corrosion resistance.

    By implementing these strategies collectively, the effectiveness of titanium dioxide concrete in the construction industry can be significantly enhanced, leading to the creation of more sustainable, resilient, and environmentally friendly infrastructure.
