NN0289 (Discontinued) Nano-Zinc Peroxide (ZnO2) (CAS No. 1314-22-3)

Nano-Zinc Peroxide (ZnO2) Description

Nano-Zinc Peroxide (ZnO₂) is a nanoscale material with distinct properties, including a large surface area that increases its reactivity and catalytic activity. It exhibits strong antimicrobial properties, which makes it valuable for medical and hygienic products. As a potent oxidising agent, it is used for bleaching, disinfection and chemical synthesis. Its capacity to absorb UV light renders it a useful component in sunscreens and protective coatings. Moreover, Nano-Zinc Peroxide decomposes at low temperatures into zinc oxide (ZnO) and oxygen, thereby enabling applications in oxygen generation and self‐cleaning surfaces. It is also employed in environmental remediation to break down organic pollutants in water and soil. These varied properties render Nano-Zinc Peroxide a versatile material for various fields.

Nano-Zinc Peroxide (ZnO2) Applications

1. Bleaching Agent: Nano-Zinc Peroxide can be used in certain industries as a bleaching agent. It decomposes to release oxygen, which is applied for bleaching materials such as textiles, paper and pulp. Its use for this purpose is limited and has largely been replaced by other more stable and efficient bleaching agents.
2. Pyrotechnics: Nano-Zinc Peroxide may be employed in pyrotechnics to produce a bright white flame. It is often combined with other chemicals to achieve specific effects in fireworks and flares.
3. Oxygen Generator: In certain specialised applications, it can be used to generate oxygen. When heated or decomposed, it releases oxygen gas, which is utilised in systems that supply oxygen in enclosed spaces.
4. Rocket Propellants: It has been considered for use as an oxidising agent in rocket propellants, particularly in experimental or research contexts. However, it is generally not applied for this purpose, and other oxidising agents are more frequently used in rocket propellants.

Exercise caution when handling potentially hazardous or unstable chemicals such as peroxide, and ensure compliance with the relevant safety procedures and guidelines.
