Studying the Mechanisms of Titanium Dioxide asUltraviolet-Blocking Additive for Films and Fabrics by anImproved SchemeHongying Yang,1 Sukang Zhu,1 Ning Pan1,21 Center of Physics of Fibrous Materials, Dong Hua University, Shanghai 200051, China2 Division of Textiles and Clothing, Biological and Agricultural Engineering Department, University of California,Davis, California 95616 Received 5 August 2003; accepted 7 November 2003 ABSTRACT: Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) has good Ultraviolet (UV)-blocking power and is very attractive in practical ap-plications because of such advantages as nontoxicity, chem-ical stability at high temperature, and permanent stabilityunder UV exposure, for example. Development of nano-science and -technology provides new ways for better treat-ment for UV-resistant films and fabrics using TiO2. How-ever, the exact Mechanisms of TiO2as a UV-blocking addi-tive are still not very clear, and researchers hold differentviews on this issue.
