Zinc Oxide
Industrial Applications
Zinc Oxide is an inorganic compound widely used in industrial and personal care applications for its astringent, soothing, and protective properties. It functions as a physical (mineral) ultraviolet (UV) filter and is incorporated into products such as baby care items, anti-itch ointments, calamine lotions, skin protectants, and cosmetics due to its anti-inflammatory properties and ability to reduce shine.
Physical Properties
Zinc Oxide typically appears as a white, odorless powder that is insoluble in water but dispersible in oils and ointments. It provides excellent UV protection, skin-soothing effects, and contributes to the formulation stability of creams, lotions, and ointments.
