Zinc (Zn) Micron Powder (99.9%, 10 µm)

Description

Zinc (Zn) Micron Powder (99.9%, 10 µm)

Zinc (Zn) Micron Powder with 99.9% purity and an average particle size of 10 µm is a high-performance metallic powder widely used in alloys, catalysts, pyrotechnics, and chemical processes. With its hexagonal crystal structure, moderate hardness (Mohs 2.5), and excellent electrical conductivity, zinc plays a vital role in both functional coatings and structural material applications.

Thanks to its low melting point (419.5 °C) and boiling point (907 °C), zinc powder is suitable for casting, galvanization, and energy-related applications, providing strong reactivity and versatility.
