Description
Zinc Oxide is an inorganic, white, odorless powder widely used in industrial, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, rubber, ceramic, paint, and water treatment applications. It is insoluble in water but reacts with acids and alkalis. Zinc oxide is known for its high chemical stability, UV-absorbing ability, antibacterial properties, and thermal resistance.
Key Features:
- High purity white powder with excellent brightness
- Chemically stable and resistant to heat and light
- Amphoteric nature – reacts with both acids and alkalis
- Excellent UV absorption and UV protection properties
- Antibacterial and antifungal activity
- Non-toxic and safe when used as recommended
- Insoluble in water, but soluble in acids and strong bases
- Good thermal conductivity and heat resistance
- Acts as an effective activator in rubber vulcanization
- Provides corrosion resistance and surface protection
- Supports heavy metal precipitation in wastewater treatment
- Functions as a micronutrient source in biological processes
Applications:
- Rubber & Tyre Industry : Used as an activator in vulcanization to improve strength, elasticity, and durability of rubber products.
