Ceramic Industry
Zinc oxide (ZnO) is crucial in the ceramic industry due to its various benefits:
- Glazing Agent: Enhances the finish, gloss, and durability of ceramic glazes.
- Fluxing Agent: Lowers the melting point of ceramic mixtures, aiding in the manufacturing process.
- Thermal Stability: Improves the thermal shock resistance of ceramics.
- Color Development: Contributes to the development of certain colors in ceramic glazes.
Zinc oxide is essential for improving the quality, appearance, and manufacturing efficiency of ceramic products.
