Zinc oxide from American Zinc, LLC uses the French process technique to produce extremely high-purity zinc oxide (ZnO) domestically. This product has very low impurity levels, making it suitable for a variety of chemical applications. For rubber and elastomer manufacturing, zinc oxide enhances tensile strength, heat resistance, and aging properties, while also being an activator that improves curing efficiency and overall product durability for vulcanization processes. Beyond elastomers, zinc oxide functions as a vital additive for ceramics and glass to improve whiteness and clarity. American Zinc, LLC’s product analysis was provided by an independent third-party testing facility.
