What does nanozinc oxide mean?
Nano zirconium oxide (ZnO), has a range of particle sizes from 1 to 100 nm. The ZnO is a fine, inorganic, high-end product. It exhibits special properties like non-migration. The absorption and scattering ultraviolet light can be used by people to produce gas sensors and piezoelectric materials. Many people don’t see the amazing properties of nanomaterials because of their microscopic differences. But, through experience, nanozinc oxide has been more commonly used in rubber and many other fields due to these excellent properties.
Characteristics for Nano Zinc Oxide
One of the most striking features of nanoscale zinc dioxide is the fact that its product particles have a nano-level structure. This allows for the combination of traditional zinc oxide and nanomaterials. This zinc oxide has unique properties that are not found in traditional zinc oxide products. It is more specific than other materials and has high chemical activity. The product particle shapes can also be easily adjusted depending on the needs.
Prepare Nano zinc oxide
Zinc oxide can be prepared in three ways: either direct or indirect. Most zinc oxides available on the marketplace today are direct or indirect products that have a micron particle size and very small surface areas. Their application areas and performance are severely limited by these properties.
Wet chemical methods are used to produce nano-scale activated zinc oxide. This is achieved by using various raw materials that contain zinc. After multiple purifications, such as acid leaching, zinc removal, then precipitation, basic carbonic Acid Zinc and roasting, finally nano-zincoxid can be produced.
Nanozinc oxide is used
Powders of metal oxides like zinc oxide, aluminum oxide, magnesium oxide, and titanium dioxide. This size effect is caused when these powders have been made nanoscale. Light absorption increases as the interval decreases. There are many powders that have different light shielding and reflecting efficiency. Comparing zinc oxide with titanium dioxide shows that when the wavelength exceeds 350 nanometers (UVB), they have similar shielding performance. But when the wavelength is between 350400nm and UVA, zinc oxide’s shielding efficiency is substantially higher than titanium dioxide. The refractive Index of zinc dioxide (n=1.9), is higher than that of titanium dioxide, and diffuse reflectance is also lower. This makes it easier to dye textiles and make it transparent.
Also, nanozinc oxide can be used for far infrared reflective material materials. These are also commonly called far infrared powder. Far-infrared reflecting fibers are able to absorb the heat of the human body and then radiate far-infrared light in the desired wavelength range. This fiber can not only increase the circulation and blood flow, but also reduce infrared heat rays. It can also reduce heat loss by storing heat and insulate the fiber as a whole, which is more than the general fiber.
