Research Progress on Preparation and Modification of Nano-TiO2 for Cosmetics
Nano-titanium dioxide(TiO2)is an important functional material which fond widespread application in the fields of cosmetics and medicine due to its excellent ultraviolet absorption,good covering,and antibacterial effects.The crystal structure,particle size,and properties of TiO2 depend on the different preparation methods.For use in cosmetics,nano-TiO2 requires good dispersibility,weather resistance,and broad-spectrum ultraviolet absorption properties.Therefore,this review aims to summarize the common preparation methods and modification techniques of nano-TiO2 and to predict the research direction for the modification of nano-TiO2 for cosmetic applications based on the trends in cosmetic efficacy and development.
