Zinc Oxide Market 2019 | Analysis Includes Growth, Trends, Technologies & Opportunities Forecast

Zinc Oxide is an inorganic compound with the molecular formula ZnO. It is a colorless, odorless, bitter taste powder, which is insoluble in water. It occurs naturally as the mineral zincite, but most zinc oxide is produced synthetically. Zinc Oxide offers several characteristics such as high refractive index, high thermal stability & conductivity, binding, antibacterial, low coefficient of expansion and UV-protection properties.

Zinc Oxide is used across numerous applications in different end-use industries. It is commonly used in the rubber industry as a vulcanizing agent in the vulcanization process of rubber. It has a significant use in ceramic industry for producing ceramic glaze and frit compositions. Zinc Oxide is majorly utilized in cosmetics and personal care industry as thickener, lubricant, colorant, and skin protecting UV absorber for manufacturing products such as sunscreens, body lotions, baby powders, baby lotions, bath soaps, nail products, foot powders, anti-dandruff shampoo, talcum powder, cold creams, depilatory products, diaper rash ointments, makeup products, and others. It is used as a source of zinc in pre-packaged foods such as breakfast cereals. It is also used as a pigment and for imparting opaqueness in various paints & coatings. Zinc Oxide found in various types of application in the healthcare industry for manufacturing pharmaceutical products such as ointments, anti-septic creams, and first-aid bandages among other. However, it is applicable for external use only and can prove hazardous if swallowed or inhaled.
