Why nano-zinc oxide is used as reinforcing agent and activator in rubber or cable industry?

What is nanometer zinc oxide?
Nano zinc oxide , the product has high activity and has the functions of anti-infrared, ultraviolet, and sterilization. It has been widely used in sunscreen cosmetics, new functional fiber with antibacterial, anti-odor, and anti-ultraviolet properties, self-cleaning antibacterial glass, ceramics, anti-infrared and ultraviolet shielding materials, sanitary ware, sewage treatment, and other products. Zinc oxide is an essential additive in the rubber and tire industry; It can also be used as a vulcanization activator, reinforcing agent, and colorant for natural rubber, synthetic rubber, and latex. Nano zinc oxide can fully play a role in vulcanization promotion and improve the performance of rubber when used in rubber. Its dosage is only 30-50% of ordinary zinc oxide.
Application of nanometer zinc oxide
1. Cosmetics: Nano zinc oxide is a broad-spectrum inorganic ultraviolet shielding agent, which is widely used in sunscreen spray, sunscreen, and other cosmetics due to its effective shielding, safety, and antibacterial properties. UV shielding efficiency, transparency, dispersibility, and light stability are the main standards to measure the performance of nano zinc oxide in sunscreen cosmetics. Particle size control technology and surface treatment technology are the fundamental ways to improve the quality of nano zinc oxide
2. Rubber: The rubber industry is the industry that uses the most zinc oxide. In the production of this industry, zinc oxide is mostly used as an activator, enhancer, and colorant. The wear resistance, aging resistance, friction ignition resistance, service life, and other properties of rubber products can be improved with nano zinc oxide.
 
Preparation of nanometer zinc oxide
Immerse 30g of high-purity zinc particles in 50mL1:5 hydrochloric acid solution for about 10min, discard them, wash them with water several times, and add 80mL of hydrochloric acid. Completely dissolve the washed zinc particles, filter the insoluble substances, dilute them with water to 400mL, and heat them to 70 for standby. Add 5mL of ammonium hydroxide (2moL/L) to 400mL of water, stir them evenly, add 60g of ammonium oxalate monohydrate, heat them to dissolve, filter the insoluble substances while hot, and then heat them to 70 , and add ammonia to the standby zinc chloride solution to make pH=2-4, Slowly add the above ammonium oxalate solution to zinc chloride under constant stirring. Let it stand until the precipitation is complete. Wash and precipitate the solution with water until the ions in the solution are qualified. Filter it. Wash it with conductive water 5 to 6 times. Burn it. First, slowly raise the temperature to 240 and keep it for 8 to 12 hours to remove the crystal water. Then raise the temperature to 800 and burn it for 2 to 3 hours. If the raw zinc is analytically pure, the obtained zinc oxide needs further purification: dissolve it with a small amount of hydrochloric acid, Add concentrated ammonia water until the precipitation is completely dissolved, and then add high-purity CO2 gas (after twice washing, once washing with concentrated sulfuric acid and once washing with ammonia solution) until the zinc carbonate is completely precipitated, and then filter it. After several times of washing, burn it in a muffle furnace 2~3 times.
 
Price of nanometer zinc oxide
Nanometer zinc oxide particle size and purity will affect the product's price, and the purchase volume can also affect the cost of nanometer zinc oxide. A large amount of large amount will be lower. The price of nanometer zinc oxide can be found on our company's official website.
