Zinc sulfide
This inorganic compound has the chemical formula ZnS. The powder is white-yellow and darkens when exposed to light. Zinc sulfuride is stable when dry, but slowly oxidizes as zinc sulfate in humid conditions.
Zinc Sulfide Pulp Applications
Zinc sulfide’s excellent properties make it a popular choice in many areas.
1. Chemical
Zinc sulfuride is used primarily in the production of paints and plastics for chemical processes. Zinc sulfide is an important paint pigment due to its white transparency and insoluble in water, organic solvents as well as weak acids and bases. Because of its high refractive and wear resistance, zinc sulfide has a high hiding power when covered with wax paper, metal plates, or equipment.
Zinc sulfuride is simple to dissolve, difficult to agglomerate and neutral in colour. You can use it as part of thermosetting, thermoplastics or reinforced fiberglass. It also acts as an artificial rubber, flame retardant, and dispersant.
2. Ceramics
Ceramics use zinc sulfide because it has good sintering characteristics. According to research, zinc sulfide with monodisperse particle is more effective at sintering than the agglomerated form of zinc sulfide. The increased particle size also increases the performance.
3. Photoelectric
Zinc sulfuride can be used as a photonic material and is a semiconductor with a wide bandgap. You can achieve visible emission with different wavelength bands by introducing different dopants to the nano-zinc sulfuride matrix. Zinc sulfuride is used in numbers, symbols, automatic simulation displays, radar and computer terminal display. It can also be used for large-screen displays such as those that display characters, numbers and letters, in transportation, post, telecommunications and other areas.
4. Photocatalysis
Because nano-zinc sulfuride is a type of photonic material it can produce photonic holes. Quantum size effect increases the redox potential, which makes it an excellent photocatalytic silicon.
5. Infrared Performance
Zinc sulfuride is an excellent infrared optical material that has excellent mechanical, optical, and thermal comprehensive characteristics. The best dual-band Infrared observation window/hood material for airplanes. To use this property in a special absorbant material, doped by pigments, single particles must have a larger particle size. This can be altered with the help of a metal nanolayer attached to zinc sulfide’s surface.
