Micro Zinc Powder Description
Micro Zinc Powder exhibits high sphericity, high purity, small particle sizes, uniform distribution, large specific surface area, low bulk density, reduced melt deformation and adhesion resulting in discrete agglomerates. It can be easily dispersed and processed industrially. It is currently utilised in anti‐corrosion coatings and ship anti‐corrosion applications, among other uses.

Applications of Micro Zinc Powder
- Zinc and its alloy nanopowders serve as catalysts in the reaction converting carbon dioxide and hydrogen into methanol, with quantifiable catalyst efficiencies and selectivities.
- In the rubber industry, nano‐zinc functions as an active vulcanising agent. It disperses more readily than conventional zinc powder and contributes to improved thermal conductivity, wear resistance and tensile strength in rubber products. It is used in natural rubber, styrene–butadiene rubber, butadiene rubber, nitrile rubber, ethylene–propylene rubber, butyl rubber and other rubber formulations, particularly during the foaming of nitrile and PVC rubbers.
- It is used as a reducing agent and as zinc powder for coatings. The average particle size is 0.1–4 µm.
- Ultrafine zinc powder is the primary raw material in the manufacture of paints, coatings and chemical products such as white block, sodium zincate and zinc oxide, and it serves as a reducing agent in organic synthesis.
- Additionally, nano‐zinc powder and ultrafine zinc powder are utilised in the metallurgical industry, the battery industry, and in the pesticide, feed, dye and manufacturing sectors.
