zinc oxide

Zinc oxide, a inorganic compound with the chemical method of ZnO, is an oxide of zinc. It is insoluble in water and ethanol, however soluble in acid, sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, ammonium chloride. It is a regularly used chemical additive, extensively used in the manufacturing of plastics, silicate products, artificial rubber, lubricating oil, paint coatings, ointments, adhesives, food, batteries, flame retardants and different products. Zinc oxide has a massive bandgap and exciton binding energy, excessive transparency, and super room temperature luminescence performance. It is broadly used in merchandise such as liquid crystal displays, skinny film transistors, and light-emitting diodes in the semiconductor field. In addition, microparticle zinc oxide as a nanomaterial has additionally begun to play a position in associated fields.
