Rubber and Plastic Compounds
►Zinc oxide is used in rubber and latex compounds as an activator in the curing and vulcanization process.
►Zinc oxide is used as a reinforcing agent adding durability and abrasion resistance to compounds.
►Zinc oxide aids in protecting rubber and plastics (especially outdoor weathering polypropylenes) from harmful UV rays.
►Zinc oxide imparts heat resistance properties to various types of rubber and plastics compounds.
