Zinc Oxide

About Product

Zinc Oxide (ZnO) is a multifunctional inorganic compound widely used in the plastics and rubber industry. It enhances the durability, heat resistance, and UV protection of rubber products, making it essential in tire manufacturing, footwear, and industrial rubber applications. In plastics, ZnO functions as a stabilizer, flame retardant, and antimicrobial agent. It also improves processing efficiency and extends the lifespan of polymers by preventing degradation caused by heat and light.
