  • Zinc Sulfide/ Zinc Sulphide (ZnS) 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.
