Please be aware that this old REACH registration data factsheet is no longer maintained; it remains frozen as of 19th May 2023.
The new ECHA CHEM database has been released by ECHA, and it now contains all REACH registration data. There are more details on the transition of ECHA's published data to ECHA CHEM here.

Additional information
- Brouwers T (2009). 24h screening transformation/dissolution test of Chloride reactor discharge at a 100 mg/L loading in a standard aqueous medium at pH 6, 7 and 8. testing laboratory: ECTX consult bvba, Bergstraat 73, B3500 Hasselt/ analytical phase: Servaco nv, tramstraat 2, B8560 wevelgem. Owner company: TDMA (titanium dioxide manufacturers association). Study no. X09-01-014
In accordance with Column 2 of REACH Annex VII, the water solubility study (section 7.7) does not need to be conducted as the substance is hydrolytically unstable at ambient pH (half-life less than 12 hours). It is reactive towards water (Millennium 2007), and on reaction produces hydrochloric acid and insoluble oxides. A precipitate of insoluble titanium dioxide is produced after rapid hydrolysis of titanium tetrachloride (Fisk et al 2010). The solubility of titanium dioxide is reported as < 5 µg/L. (Harvey 2004) and even < 1µg/L (Brouwers 2009).
Information on Registered Substances comes from registration dossiers which have been assigned a registration number. The assignment of a registration number does however not guarantee that the information in the dossier is correct or that the dossier is compliant with Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 (the REACH Regulation). This information has not been reviewed or verified by the Agency or any other authority. The content is subject to change without prior notice.
