General description:
Caustic Soda Formula: ZnO
- Zinc oxide is an inorganic white powder compound, and its formula is ZnO. As a mineral zincite, zinc oxide is available in the crust of Earth. Most zinc oxides used commercially are synthetic only. Zinc Oxide is produced by the French process generally.
- Zinc oxide is a water-insoluble compound, but soluble in alkalies and most acids. It has a wide application in the industry such as Tyres and Rubber, Cosmetics, Polymers, Glass and Ceramics, Pharmaceuticals, Chemicals and Lubricants, Feed, Agriculture, Paint, Battery, etc.
- Different grades of Zinc oxides include Gold seal, White Seal, Red Seal, Yellow Seal, Feed Grade, etc.
Application & Usage:
- Zinc oxide is an essential ingredient in most rubber products as an important activator in the vulcanization process.
- Zinc oxide(ZnO) is used in a wide range of cosmetics and personal care products including sunscreens, cosmetics, and skincare products because of its superior UVA/UVB protection, mild antiseptic effects, healing of chapped skin, and transparency levels properties.
- In Ceramics, Zinc Oxide is used as a fluxing agent in the preparation of frits and enamels for ceramic objects.
- Zinc Oxide is used in heat-resistant glass and cookware.
- ZnO is used in the manufacturing process of various chemicals, such as zinc stearate, zinc diacrylate, zinc borate, Sodium Hydrosulphite, and others. These chemicals are themselves used in several applications that include plastics, rubbers, papers, textiles, and flame retardant materials.
- Zinc oxide is also used in certain automotive lubricants. The main role of zinc oxide in automotive engine oils is to help in reducing the oxidation, corrosion, and wear on the engine.
- For the source of zinc as a trace element for livestock, Zinc Oxide is widely used.
- Zinc Oxide(ZnO) can substitute zinc sulphate in most of the fertilizers formula as a source for the essential element zinc.
- Zinc contains paints that are used as anti-corrosive paints for pipelines, steel infrastructure, bridges, windmills, offshore rigs, petrochemical and power industries, etc.

FAQs of Zinc Oxide (ZnO):
Q: How should Zinc Oxide (ZnO) 325 mesh be stored for optimal shelf life?
A: Zinc Oxide should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area, away from moisture and contaminants. If kept in its original HDPE packaging with the inner liner intact, it retains an indefinite shelf life.
Q: What industrial processes commonly use Zinc Oxide 325 mesh as a raw material?
A: ZnO 325 mesh is widely used as a raw material in ceramics, the rubber industry, paints, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and fertilizers. It offers properties like UV protection, opacity, and chemical stability, making it integral in these sectors.
Q: When is ZnO 325 mesh recommended over coarser grades?
A: This fine grade is preferred when uniform particle distribution, high reactivity, and precise performance are neededsuch as in advanced ceramics, high-quality paints, or sensitive cosmetic products requiring smooth textures and consistency.
Q: Where does the packaging ensure the safety and purity of Zinc Oxide during transport and storage?
A: Zinc Oxide is supplied in strong HDPE bags with an inner liner, available in 25 kg or 50 kg sizes, safeguarding the product from moisture, contamination, and mechanical damage during transit and storage.
Q: What is the benefit of using ZnO 325 mesh with low impurities (Pb 10 ppm, As 3 ppm)?
A: Low impurity content ensures the zinc oxide is safe for applications with strict quality, safety, and health requirements, minimizing the risk of contamination in end products, especially in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.
Q: How is Zinc Oxide processed or handled in industrial applications?
A: It is typically added directly into formulations either as a dry powder or dispersed in a medium depending on the application, easily blending due to its fine and amorphous nature, and does not require any special handling due to its non-toxic and stable profile.
Q: What advantages does Zinc Oxide 325 mesh offer in terms of physical and chemical performance?
A: This ZnO grade offers high whiteness, amphoteric reactivity, insolubility in water, and a controlled particle sizeproviding opacity, chemical resistance, and UV protection for end products in various industries.
