Active Zinc Oxide is a highly reactive form of zinc oxide (ZnO) that is widely used in the rubber, chemical, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic industries. Unlike regular zinc oxide, the “active” form has a larger surface area and higher reactivity, making it an effective activator in rubber vulcanization and a key ingredient in antimicrobial formulations, ointments, and sunscreens. It also finds applications as a catalyst, in ceramics, and in chemical synthesis processes, owing to its excellent thermal stability and strong oxidative properties. Its versatility and high performance make it an essential material in both industrial and consumer products.

Setting up an Active Zinc Oxide production plant requires careful planning and investment in specialized equipment. The most common production method is the indirect or French process, which involves vaporizing metallic zinc and oxidizing it in a controlled atmosphere to produce fine, highly reactive zinc oxide powder. The plant requires a zinc melting furnace, vaporization chamber, oxidation system, dust collection units, and milling equipment for achieving the desired particle size. Adequate safety measures are critical due to the high temperatures and fine particulate matter involved. Raw material sourcing, environmental compliance, proper ventilation, and skilled workforce are essential for smooth operations. The final product is collected, packaged, and stored under controlled conditions to maintain its activity and quality.
