With low moisture content and high chemical purity, it maintains stability during long-term storage. The product is best stored in a cool, dry place and is conveniently packed in sturdy 25 kg HDPE bags to prevent contamination or degradation.
FAQ's of Active Zinc Oxide:
Q: How should Active Zinc Oxide be stored to maintain its quality?
A: Active Zinc Oxide should be kept in a tightly sealed 25 kg HDPE bag and stored in a cool, dry place. This prevents moisture uptake and maintains the powder's chemical stability and purity over time.
Q: What are the main industrial and pharmaceutical uses of this zinc oxide?
A: This zinc oxide is widely used in ceramics for glazes, rubber manufacturing for elasticity, pharmaceuticals for topical formulations, cosmetics for UV filtering and skin protection, paints, fertilizers, and electronics. Its high purity and fine particle size make it suitable for demanding applications in these sectors.
Q: When is it beneficial to use nano/fine particle size zinc oxide?
A: Nano or fine particle size zinc oxide is especially advantageous when enhanced opacity, superior dispersion, and improved reactivity are desired-such as in cosmetics for sun protection, advanced rubber products for durability, and electronics where uniformity is critical.
Q: Where is this Active Zinc Oxide manufactured and supplied from?
A: This Active Zinc Oxide is manufactured and supplied in India, adhering to IS: 9000/2005 quality standards and is available for both domestic and international markets through reliable industrial chemical suppliers.
Q: What is the process of incorporating zinc oxide into formulations?
A: Zinc oxide is typically blended into formulations as a dry powder. Its fine particle size ensures easy mixing and dispersion in water or oil-based systems, or it can be mixed with other additives during processing, depending on the end application-such as direct addition into rubber, paints, creams, or glazes.
Q: How does zinc oxide benefit cosmetic and pharmaceutical products?
A: In cosmetics, its fine particle size provides even, high-opacity coverage and protects the skin from UV rays. In pharmaceuticals, its antibacterial and soothing properties make it effective for topical creams and ointments. Additionally, being non-poisonous and virtually free from heavy metals, it is safe for consumer use.
