  • Cleaning sunscreen residue on metal

    I’m new in formulating, and currently i work for physical sunscreen formulation. I was practicing on making water resistance w/o physical sunscreen. the formulation contain Titanium dioxide as the main UV filter, and after making the batch using big stainless pot (5 kg batch size), i found some trouble when cleaning the pot after i left the dirty pot for several hours using dish-washing soap. I also found similar residue while making vanishing cream with high TiO2 content, meanwhile i don’t find this problem while making other formulation

    does anyone has any suggestion on why this could happen? and how to clean TiO2 residue on stainless or any other metal?

    do i need to use specific material or methods to remove this kind of residue?
