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.

SOFT BASE INK Zodiac Aquarius™ soft base inks are designed for printing on white or light-colored garments without affecting the fabric hand feel. The high solids ink range consists of high opacity white and a soft, flexible base to produce highly opaque, soft hand prints. DISCHARGE INK The Zodiac Aquarius™ range of bright discharge inks allow printers to achieve bright whites and colors.
