- Chemical properties:
ZnO is an amphoteric oxide. The chemical is almost insoluble in water and alcohol, but soluble in most acids, typically hydrochloric acid:
ZnO + 2 HCl → ZnCl2 + H2O
Zinc Oxide reacts with a Base to form a product as shown in the example of the equation below
ZnO + 2NaOH + H2O → NA2 (Zn(OH 4))
Zinc white reacts slowly with the fatty acids in the oil to produce the corresponding carboxylates, such as oleate or stearate.
ZnO decomposes to zinc vapor and oxygen
ZnO + C → Zn + CO
Zinc oxide reacts with hydrogen sulfide to give zinc sulfide
ZnO + H2S → ZnS + H2O
Applications of Zinc Oxide
Zinc Oxide is a chemical that has many uses in life. It is applied in many industries such as rubber production, construction, cosmetics, medical, paint industry, .. and many other small applications.
1. Application in rubber manufacturing industry
This is the main application of the chemical Zinc Oxide. It accounts for about 50% of the chemical ZnO in the rubber industry. The main use of Zinc oxide is used in the vulcanization of rubber. In addition, chemicals also help rubber to be free from fungus and UV light.
2. Application in construction
ZnO chemicals are used in the production of concrete. Chemicals help improve the curing time and resistance of concrete to water.
3. Application in the coating industry
In the paint industry, ZnO is used as a pigment in paints. Especially used in paint for paper. The main use of this chemical is to create a coating that resists eating metal dishes. Particularly effective for galvanized iron.
4. Application in cosmetics
In cosmetics, zinc oxide is widely used because of its ability to whiten, protect the skin from burns and skin damage caused by direct ultraviolet light. Therefore, ZnO is often an ingredient in ointments and sunscreens.
Not only that, Zinc Oxide is also a component of oils called dandruff and scalp fungus, or talc for babies. It protects babies from heat rash.
5. Medical applications
In the medical field, Zinc white is often used with Eugenol to form Eugenol zinc oxide, which is widely used in dentistry.
Zinc Oxide is widely used in medicine
6. Other Applications
– A fairly common effect of zinc oxide is its ability to deodorize and antibacterial. Therefore it is added to various materials including cotton fabric, rubber, food packaging.
Zinc Oxide is one of the components of cigarette filters, which helps to remove harmful components from cigarette smoke.
– ZnO is an ingredient in product additives that are added to food products such as breakfast cereals, providing the body with necessary nutrients.
Zinc Oxide is also used in the prevention of corrosion of nuclear reactors.
