Product Description:

‌Daran Biotech Zinc Oxide Powder (ZnO) – 80% Zinc for Multifunctional Applications‌

‌Product Overview‌

Daran Biotech’s ‌Zinc Oxide Powder (ZnO)‌ is a high-purity, white to off-white fine powder with a zinc content of ‌80%‌, widely used in food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. With exceptional functionality as a nutrient fortifier, skin protectant, and physical sunscreen, our ZnO combines historical efficacy (traced to ancient Egyptian wound care) with modern scientific validation. Its unique properties, including UV reflection, antimicrobial action, and compatibility with acids/alkali, make it indispensable for industrial formulations.

‌Key Features‌

‌High Zinc Content & Nutritional Value‌
- Delivers ‌80% elemental zinc‌ – ideal for food fortification in grains and supplements, with absorption rates comparable to zinc sulfate.
- Stable under high temperatures (melting point >1800°C), ensuring integrity in processed foods.
‌Dermatological Benefits‌
- ‌Antimicrobial & Wound Healing‌: Inhibits Staphylococcus aureus and Candida, promotes skin barrier repair, and controls excess moisture (astringent properties).
- ‌Sunscreen & Coverage‌: Reflects ‌UVA/UVB rays‌ through its opaque structure, providing broad-spectrum UV protection and natural遮瑕 (non-chemical mechanism).
‌Versatile Solubility‌
- Compatible with acidic, alkaline, and organic systems (soluble in ethanol, ammonia, and concentrated alkali).
- Gradually absorbs CO₂ in air, maintaining stability in formulations.

‌Applications‌

‌Food Industry‌: Zinc fortification in cereals, baked goods, and dietary supplements.
‌Pharmaceuticals‌: Topical ointments for wound healing, diaper rash creams, and antifungal treatments.
‌Cosmetics‌: Sunscreens, makeup (foundations, concealers), and oil-control skincare products.
‌Industrial‌: Additive in coatings, ceramics, and rubber manufacturing.

‌Why Choose Zinc Oxide?‌

‌Proven Safety‌: Used for millennia in wound care, now validated for modern medical and cosmetic use.
‌Dual-Action Protection‌: Physical UV barrier + antimicrobial efficacy reduces formulation complexity.
‌Regulatory Compliance‌: Meets global standards for food-grade and cosmetic-grade zinc oxide.
