About these substances

Plain-language summary of each regulated substance found above, drawn from public regulatory data.

Titanium dioxide (airborne, unbound respirable) (CAS 13463-67-7)

Titanium dioxide is a white powder used to add brightness and opacity to products like paints, plastics, and some foods. The concern here is specifically about the airborne, unbound respirable form—tiny particles that can float in the air and be inhaled deep into the lungs. This form is regulated because California’s Proposition 65 lists it as a chemical known to cause cancer. The listing is based on studies showing that inhaling these fine particles over time may increase cancer risk, particularly in occupational settings like manufacturing or construction. You might encounter it in powdered coatings, pigments, or certain industrial processes where dust becomes airborne. The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) maintains this list to help people make informed choices about exposures. This summary draws on public regulatory data; the linked source is authoritative.

Titanium dioxide (inhalable) (CAS 13463-67-7)

Titanium dioxide is a white powder used to add brightness and opacity to products like paints, plastics, and some foods. When it is in a form that can be inhaled—such as fine dust or powder—it is regulated because of potential health concerns. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC), part of the World Health Organization, classifies inhalable titanium dioxide as Group 2B, meaning it is "possibly carcinogenic to humans." This classification is based on studies in animals that showed lung tumors after inhaling high levels of the powder. You might encounter inhalable titanium dioxide in industrial settings, like factories where it is handled as a dry powder, rather than in everyday consumer products like sunscreen or toothpaste, where it is usually bound in a cream or liquid. The key concern is breathing in the dust, not skin contact or ingestion. This summary draws on public regulatory data; the linked source is authoritative.
