[0002] Titanium dioxide is one of the important metal oxides and is widely used in industries such as military, rubber, plastics, papermaking, ink, chemical fiber, and cosmetics. Due to the small particle size, large specific surface area, and high surface energy of ultrafine TiO 2 particles, agglomeration, especially hard agglomeration, is likely to occur during the drying and calcination processes, resulting in poor dispersibility of the product, affecting the use effect and application range of the product. The liquid phase method has more processes, a complicated production process, and a high preparation cost; the gas phase method for producing ultrafine titanium dioxide powder has high requirements for technical level and process parameter control, and the prepared product has good quality, but the product performance is not good.

There are various preparation methods of titanium dioxide in the prior art, and most of them are based on the process technical process of sulfuric acid process titanium white, that is, using the intermediate product in the production process of sulfuric acid process titanium white as the raw material and using hydrothermal reaction to prepare the corresponding nano titanium dioxide, such as Chinese Patent CN113896234B, CN113896233B, CN114162860B; or using other substances to make core-shell structured nano titanium dioxide, such as Chinese Patent CN113912109B; or based on the basic sulfuric acid process titanium white production process, titanium white can be prepared, such as Chinese Patent Application CN114906873A. Most of the methods for preparing ultrafine titanium dioxide by the above technologies require complex process flows, expensive equipment, or need to use other costly auxiliary materials, resulting in high production costs. Therefore, it is urgent to study a new preparation method of ultrafine titanium dioxide. Summary of the Invention

[0006] As a further improvement of the present invention, the mass ratio of tetrabutyl titanate, tetraethyl orthosilicate and surfactant in step S1 is 10-15:5-8:1-2, the pH value of the adjusted solution is 10-11, the emulsification condition is 8000-10000 r / min, the time is 10-15 min, the temperature of the heating and stirring reaction is 50-60 °C, the time is 1-3 h, and the surfactant is selected from at least one of Tween-20, Tween-40, Tween-60, and Tween-80.

[0007] As a further improvement of the present invention, the temperature of the first-temperature calcination in step S2 is 800-900 °C, the time is 2-4 h; the temperature of the second-temperature calcination is 400-500 °C, the time is 2-4 h.

[0008] As a further improvement of the present invention, in step S3, the mass ratio of the micro-polar nano TiO 2 / SiO 2 powder and citric acid is 100:15-22, the temperature of the hydrothermal reaction is 200-220 °C, and the time is 15-20 min.

[0009] As a further improvement of the present invention, in step S4, the mass ratio of the graphene quantum dot-doped nano TiO 2 / SiO 2 powder and stearic acid is 10:1-2, and the ball milling time is 0.5-1.5 h.

[0011] As a further improvement of the present invention, in step S6, the mass ratio of the liposome and the non-polar nano TiO 2 / SiO 2 powder is 80-90:5-10.

[0012] The present invention further protects an ultrafine titanium dioxide powder prepared by the above preparation method.

[0013] The present invention further protects an application of the above-mentioned ultrafine titanium dioxide powder in the fields of cosmetics or coatings.

[0014] The present invention has the following beneficial effects: Due to the large specific surface area and numerous surface vacant bonds of nano-TiO 2 it is extremely easy to agglomerate during the preparation and application processes, and its excellent properties cannot be fully exerted. In the present invention, tetraethyl orthosilicate and tetrabutyl titanate are mixed and added to a surfactant solution, and after emulsification, tiny nano-sized oil-in-water droplets are formed, and the sol-gel reaction is rapidly catalyzed to obtain a nano-sized precursor, which is calcined at different temperature ranges. Calcination at 700 - 800 °C yields non-polar nano-TiO 2 / SiO 2 powder containing rutile-type titanium dioxide. Among them, rutile-type titanium dioxide belongs to the tetragonal system, is relatively dense and stable, and its symmetric structure makes it non-polar. Calcination at 400 - 500 °C yields micro-polar nano-TiO 2 / SiO 2 powder containing anatase-type titanium dioxide. Among them, the octahedra of anatase TiO 2 show obvious orthorhombic crystal distortion, and the Ti-O bond distances are all very small and unequal. This imbalance makes the TiO 2 molecule highly polar, enabling the TiO 2 surface to easily adsorb water molecules and polarize the water molecules to form surface hydroxyl groups, which can better complete subsequent surface modification. In addition, the prepared nano-TiO 2 / SiO 2 powder surface is covered with a silicon-oxygen layer, and silicon precipitates on the surface of titanium dioxide particles in the form of Si(OH) 4 . Monomeric orthosilicic acid polymerizes at different rates, initially precipitating monomeric orthosilicic acid or low-polymerization-degree silicic acid polymers. The highly active reactive silicon firmly bonds to the surface hydroxyl groups of titanium dioxide, forming nucleation sites on the titanium dioxide surface. On these nucleation sites, it can quickly react with TiO 2 to form Ti-O-Si bonds, generating titanium-oxygen and silicon-oxygen composite nanoparticles. Blending with SiO 2 makes the prepared nano-TiO 2 / SiO 2 powder surface carry negative charges, thus making its nano-structure not easily agglomerate.

[0015] In natural sunlight, UVA accounts for 90%-95% of the total amount of ultraviolet rays reaching the Earth's surface, while UVB only accounts for 5%-10%. This means that the intensity of UVA is much higher than that of UVB. Titanium dioxide has different blocking mechanisms for ultraviolet rays of different wavelengths. Titanium dioxide with a particle size greater than 0.1 μm has strong light scattering properties and mainly blocks UVA; titanium dioxide with a particle size less than 0.1 μm has a relatively small particle size and relatively weak light scattering, and its sun protection mainly absorbs UVB.

[0016] The non-polar nano-TiO 2 / SiO 2 powder (with a particle size less than 0.1 μm) has a good absorption effect on UVB, while the prepared micro-polar nano-TiO 2 / SiO 2 powder has a relatively small particle size and needs further modification.

[0017] In the present invention, the prepared micro-polar nano-TiO 2 / SiO 2 powder, due to the presence of hydroxyl groups on its surface, can adsorb citric acid, and graphene quantum dots are in-situ generated on the surface. On the one hand, it increases the size of the nanoparticles, and on the other hand, it realizes lattice change, so that TiO 2 can utilize the visible light region, enhances its photocatalytic antibacterial and chemical stability, and improves the anti-inflammatory effect.

[0018] Furthermore, the prepared nano-TiO 2 / SiO 2 powder doped with graphene quantum dots, after being coated and modified with stearic acid, forms a bidentate complex with carboxylic acid, can exist uniformly and stably in the organic phase, thereby improving its dispersibility and further avoiding its agglomeration. 4+ 2

[0019] In the present invention, the prepared nano-TiO 2 / SiO 2 powder coated with graphene quantum dots doped, after being coated with lecithin and cholesterol to form liposomes, improves the water dispersibility of the material, and further improves the dispersion performance of the material, making the material have good hydrophilicity, and has a more skin-friendly, more fitting and delicate effect when used as a cosmetic material.

[0020] The ultrafine titanium dioxide powder prepared in the present invention has good dispersibility, has a good skin-friendly, fitting and delicate effect when used in cosmetics, and has good antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties and excellent anti-ultraviolet performance, and has broad application prospects.
