Reade Advanced Materials offers:
Zinc Sulfide (ZnS) Powder
Zinc Sulfide Designations:
Synonyms: Zinc sulfide, ZnS, Sphalerite; Wurtzite; Zinc monosulfide; Irtran-2; Cleartran
Chemical Formula: ZnS
Zinc Sulfide Description:
Zinc Sulfide occurs naturally as "blend," and is prepared directly from the elements and by precipitation of a zinc salt solution with ammonium sulfide. It is produced at a relatively low cost so many of its applications are as a substitute for other materials. ZnS is a gray or off white powder that is insoluble in water, but soluble in acid.
Zn= 57% min. and S= 28% min.
100% finer than 45 microns.
