For decades, TiO2 is used as a white pigment due toits very high opacity and brightness. Therefore, it has a wide range of applications, from colouring ingredient of pharmaceutical film coating, to food application colouring.

Moisture absorbent additives are often needed in situations where hydrophilic active pharmaceutical ingredients (API) are processed. These kind of API’s (e.g. amino acids) absorb humidity from the ambient air. Therefore the particles of other ingredients in your tablet mass will stick to the API. Clumping inside the tableting mass will lead to an inhomogeneity and fluctuations of the tablethardness during the compaction process. More
