Titanium dioxide is a very important raw material in industrial production. It is widely used in coatings, plastics, paper, printing inks, chemical fiber, rubber, cosmetics, ceramics, enamel, electronics, food and medicine industries. Among them, coatings account for the largest proportion, about 60%. . The most expensive titanium dioxide in coating products is architectural coatings, accounting for 60% of the coatings.

In addition, the time interval from contract sales to decoration in China is about one year. Therefore, the sales index of commercial housing can accurately reflect the real estate industry. The impact of titanium dioxide market demand.
The 2015-2020 China Titanium Dioxide Industry Market Demand Forecast and Investment Strategic Planning Analysis Report shows that real estate sales slowed down in 2012 due to the implementation of the real estate purchase restriction policy. According to statistics, the sales volume of real estate in 2012 was 8.5 trillion yuan, a growth rate of 2.4% from the previous quarter, which was 4.1% lower than the growth rate of 6.5% in 2011.
