Product Description:
Zinc Phosphate is an inorganic compound widely used for its corrosion-resistant properties, particularly as a coating on metal surfaces. It’s a white, crystalline solid that’s insoluble in water but dissolves in acids. It’s a key component in protective coatings, dental cements, and even some pesticides
Benefits:
- Corrosion Inhibition: Zinc phosphate is a highly effective corrosion inhibitor, forming a protective barrier on metal surfaces. It’s often used as a primer pigment and as part of electroplating processes.
- Dental Cement: It’s a key ingredient in dental cements, used for permanent cementation of restorations.
- Pesticide: Zinc phosphide, a related compound, is used as a rodenticide.
- Other Applications: It can also be found in some phosphors and as a conversion coating for steel and aluminum.
Properties:
- Metal Coatings: Zinc phosphate coatings are applied to ferrous metals like iron and steel to protect them from corrosion.
- Dental Cements: Zinc phosphate cement is a long-standing material used in dentistry.
- Paints and Primers: It’s a component in some paints and primers, offering corrosion protection.
- Rodenticide: Zinc phosphide is a toxic substance used as a rodenticide.
