Titanium(IV) oxide

Description

Titanium IV oxide is a photosensitizer and photocatalyst. Titanium IV oxide can be used as a pharmaceutical excipient such as a flow aid, coating agent, sunscreen, colorant, etc. Pharmaceutical excipients or pharmaceutical excipients refer to other chemical substances used in the pharmaceutical process other than the drug ingredients. Pharmaceutical excipients generally refer to inactive ingredients in pharmaceutical preparations that can improve the stability, solubility and processability of pharmaceutical preparations. Pharmaceutical excipients also affect the absorption, distribution, metabolism and elimination ADME process of co-administered drugs. Titanium IV oxide can use light energy to generate electron-hole pairs to degrade pollutants. Photons excite electrons in TiO2 to generate active oxygen species such as AAasAasAAOH and AAasAasAAO2- , thereby oxidizing and mineralizing pollutants such as organic compounds and heavy metals. TiO2 can be used in the research of environmental remediation fields such as water treatment, air purification and self-cleaning materials.
