COVID-19 Impact on the Global Nanoparticle Titanium Dioxide Market
The Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises sector across developing economies, such as India, has been worst affected due to the COVID-19 outbreak lockdown was imposed. This is expected to decline the demand for nanoparticle titanium dioxide from various end-use industries such as paints & coatings and cosmetic industries. Furthermore, some countries started lifting restrictions and starting business operations in various sectors. Even with the gradual lifting of the lockdown, it is was a challenge for the manufacturing sector to get back to normal working conditions. This is expected to affect the nanoparticle titanium dioxide market growth in the coming years.
The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the customer buying pattern and made consumers conservative, leading to a decline in their spending for non-essentials products. Nationwide lockdowns and social distancing measures implemented by leading countries, such as the UK, Italy, Spain, Russia, and India, have negatively impacted the demand for cosmetics in these countries. COVID-19 pandemic, sales of major cosmetic manufacturers Kao Corporation and Revlon Inc, decreased by 11.4% and 18.1%, individually, in the first quarter of 2020 compared to the first quarter of 2019. Therefore, the demand for nanoparticle titanium dioxide declined significantly due to a decrease in demand for cosmetics during the pandemic.
The paints & coatings industry was severely impacted as the global automotive industry witnessed a decline in production in 2020, approximately 77.6 million units, down by 16.0% compared to 2019. In addition, due to work stoppages and labor shortages, reduced demand from the construction industry has impacted the demand for paints and coatings; thereby, impacting the demand for pigments.

Global Nanoparticle Titanium Dioxide Market Dynamics
Drivers: Approval from regulatory bodies
The European Commission (EC) is the executive of the European Union and promotes its general interest. In July 2016, it amended the cosmetics regulation to allow nanoparticle titanium dioxide as a UV filter in Annex 6 of the Official Journal of EU, among the ultraviolet (UV), filters allowed in cosmetic products.
Under the amendment, the entry for titanium dioxide is revised to state that the combined use of titanium dioxide and nanoparticle titanium dioxide must not exceed 25.0% maximum concentration in ready-to-use preparations. The U.S. FDA (Food and Drug Administration) has already approved the inclusion of titanium dioxide in sunscreens and food additives at a certain limit of 25.0% and 1.0% by weight, respectively. Approval from EC and FDA has led to increased penetration of nanoparticle titanium dioxide in the cosmetics and food preservatives industries.
Restraints: Toxicity at higher concentration
Nanoparticle titanium dioxide in small quantities is completely safe, but a high concentration of the same is toxic. According to the Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety (SCCS) of the EU, titanium dioxide nanoparticles should not be used in applications that lead to significant inhalation exposure, such as powders or sprays. This is because inhalation of these nanoparticles may cause inflammation and harm the lungs. It can cause cancer, eczema, allergic reaction, damage to genetic material, and nerve damage in some rare cases. Altogether such speculation can be responsible for the restricted growth of the nanoparticle titanium dioxide market in the near future.
Opportunities: Increase in disposable income in emerging economies
Emerging economies such as India, China, Brazil, and others are undergoing significant economic development, which has resulted in increased disposable income of the people in these countries. This has resulted in a growing demand for products that enhance people's lifestyles, such as cosmetics, air filters, detoxifying coatings, solar devices, etc. As the penetration of nanoparticle titanium dioxide in these lifestyle-enhancing products expands exponentially, industry players have numerous opportunities to position themselves to meet this growing demand.

The rutile segment is projected to account for the largest market share by type
Based on type, the global nanoparticle titanium dioxide market is fragmented into rutile, anatase, and combination of rutile & anatase. The rutile segment was the highest contributor to the market and accounted for 42.1% of the market share. Rutile titanium dioxide nanoparticles appear in dark red and have high stability. It is the most commonly found type of titanium dioxide and is usually found in metamorphic and igneous rocks subjected to high-pressure and high-temperature conditions.
Rutile nanoparticle titanium dioxide is widely used in manufacturing various cosmetic products. Titanium dioxide in its nanoparticle form is now the only form used as an ultraviolet (UV) filter in sunscreens, but it is also used in creams, foundations, and lip balms. Its use as a UV filter is proven to prevent skin cancers and sunburns. The Scientific Committee on Consumer Safety considers nano-TiO2 a non-sensitizer and mild or non-irritant to skin. It concludes in no evidence of carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, or reproductive toxicity after dermal exposure to nano-TiO2. According to the SCCS, nanoparticle titanium dioxide from sunscreens does not present any health risk when applied on the skin at a concentration up to 25.0%.
