Substance Safety Summary SUBSTANCE: Titanium Dioxide GENERAL STATEMENT Titanium dioxide pigment (chemical formula: TiO2) is an inorganic white pigment found in an array of end uses. TiO2 is a naturally occurring mineral used as a bright white pigment for paint, in the food industry as a coloring, in sunscreens and cosmetics, and in other industrial uses. After processing, it is exists as white, powdery solid.

Photothermally active particles added to the fibers help transform the energy of invisible light rays into heat for enhanced comfort in cold temperatures. When exposed to a light source for 10 minutes, this new generation of heat-preservation additives can provide a temperature increase from 6°C to 12°C for PET and PA fibers based on different let-down-ratio and textile structure. KEY CHARACTERISTICS • Offers reheating property for synthetic fibers with specialty formulations • Provides a temperature increase of up to 12°C when exposed to a light source for 10 minutes • Good spinnability • Lower impact on the color APPLICATIONS Cesa Fiber Additives are intended for use in: • Clothing: hoodie, sweater, jacket, ski clothing, thermal underwear, etc

In addition, several blends of the above polymers such as PC/ABS, PC/PETG, PC/PBT and PPO/PS have great commercial importance for several applications. Optimal adhesion values are also obtained for overmolds onto PC (Lexan), ABS (Cycoloy), PC/ABS(Cycolac) and PC/PBT (Xenoy) as demonstrated in Figure 5.
