has obtained a patent for a process of making titanium dioxide particles, comprised of forming a slurry comprising particles and a phosphate-containing agent, the particles comprising titanium dioxide and alumina; milling the slurry to form a homogeneous dispersion comprised of milled particles; leaching the alumina off of the milled particles to form leached particles in a leached dispersion; treating the leached dispersion under conditions to react the leached alumina with the phosphate-containing agent to form aluminum phosphate and to coat the leached particles with the aluminum phosphate and form a slurry of coated particles.
If you are truly worried, look up these ingredients: sodium aluminum phosphate; mono-calcium phosphate, sodium acid pyrophosphate, and calcium lactate.

Each dose of Twinrix contains at least 720 enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays units of inactivated hepatitis A virus and 20 mcg of recombinant hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) protein, with 0.45 mg of aluminum in the form of aluminum hydroxide and aluminum phosphate as adjuvants, 5.0 mg 2-phenoxyethanol as a preservative, and pH stabilizer in normal saline.
Aluminum phosphate more frequently produced complete relief of moderate to severe heartburn at 60 minutes compared with placebo (P [is less than] .001; number needed to treat [NNT] = 2.1 for mild heartburn and 20 for severe).[5] Patients who received a combination of magnesium and aluminum hydroxide for 7 days had no more relief of symptoms than the placebo group.[6] Atlay and colleagues[7] found that sodium bicarbonate significantly reduced reflux symptoms compared with placebo (P=.021; NNT=6.0).
