Application
Zinc Sulfide is an extremely pure white pigment widely used in paints, coatings, paper, plastics, and rubber. It is especially valuable in abrasion-sensitive coating systems, polyester automotive compounds, and UV-curing paints, where it enables fast and thorough hardening of thick films. In paper applications, Zinc Sulfide can be combined with optical brighteners to achieve exceptionally bright finishes, making it a versatile choice across industries requiring high-performance pigmentation.
