Q: Why does titanium dioxide sometimes create white streaks in soap?
A: Streaking usually comes from uneven dispersion. Pre-mixing thoroughly helps create a more even colour.

Q: What does non-nano mean for this titanium dioxide?
A: It is classified as a non-nanomaterial under the referenced EU definition. Its specification limits calculated nano-sized particles to less than 10% by number, rather than meaning that absolutely no nano-sized particles are present.

Q: Can I use it to lighten coloured products?
A: Yes, it is often used to pastelise or lighten coloured formulations when blended evenly.
