Description :

Overview of Zinc Dust

Zinc Dust is a fine metallic powder of zinc (Zn) widely used in industrial, chemical, and metallurgical applications. It is valued for its high reactivity, corrosion resistance, and reducing properties, making it an essential raw material in many manufacturing and chemical processes. Zinc Dust appears as a greyish powder and is highly versatile for professional industrial use.

In industrial applications, Zinc Dust is used in galvanisation, corrosion protection coatings, chemical reactions, batteries, and metallurgy. It is often combined with other industrial raw materials available on ChemicalBull, such as Iron Powder, Tin Powder, Alumina Powder, Magnesium Sulphate, and Ferrous Sulphate Monohydrate, allowing manufacturers to develop high-performance coatings, alloys, and chemical formulations.

Applications of Zinc Dust

Corrosion Protection & Galvanization

• Used in zinc-rich paints and primers for steel protection

• Provides sacrificial corrosion resistance for metallic structures

• Extends the life of steel and iron components

Chemical & Reducing Agent

• Acts as a reducing agent in organic and inorganic synthesis

• Used in chemical reactions like the Leclanché battery and zinc-carbon cells

• Suitable for laboratory and industrial chemical processes

Metallurgy & Alloy Production

• Incorporated in brass, bronze, and other zinc-based alloys

• Improves mechanical strength, hardness, and corrosion resistance

• Used in powder metallurgy applications for sintered products

Industrial Coatings & Paints

• Used in anti-corrosive coatings for pipelines, bridges, and tanks

• Provides high adhesion and long-term durability in harsh environments

Batteries & Electrical Applications

• Used in dry cell batteries and zinc-carbon cells

• Acts as an active material in electrochemical processes

• Supports energy storage and industrial electrical applications

Safety & Handling Guidelines

• Store Zinc Dust in a cool, dry place away from moisture and oxidising agents

• Avoid inhalation of fine dust; use masks and gloves

• Keep containers tightly sealed to prevent contamination

• Follow MSDS and industrial safety guidelines during handling and transport

• Avoid sparks and open flames, as Zinc Dust is flammable in powder form
