Yes, Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) is on California's Proposition 65 (Prop 65) list. Prop 65, officially known as the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, requires businesses to provide warnings about significant exposures to chemicals that cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. As of 2021, Titanium Dioxide, when inhaled in powder form, is recognized for its potential to cause cancer and thus made it to the list. It's commonly used in various products, including paints, sunscreens, and food items as a pigment or thickening agent. The inclusion on the list means that products containing Titanium Dioxide in forms that can be inhaled need to carry a warning in California. It’s important for consumers to be aware of the usage context, as the risk is primarily associated with inhalation in occupational settings rather than incidental ingestion or skin contact.
