Zinc Sulphide: A Versatile Material - East India Chemicals - Your Partner in Kolkata
Zinc sulphide (ZnS), a bright yellow inorganic compound, plays a crucial role in various industries. East India Chemicals, a leading supplier, manufacturer, and distributor of zinc sulphide in Kolkata, India, is your one-stop shop for all your ZnS needs.
Properties of Zinc Sulphide
Zinc sulphide exists in several crystalline forms, each with unique properties. The most common forms are sphalerite (cubic) and wurtzite (hexagonal). Sphalerite is the more prevalent form, known for its high transparency and good electrical conductivity. Here's a closer look at some key properties:
- Chemical Formula: ZnS
- Appearance: Yellow powder (amorphous) or various colored crystals (crystalline)
- Melting Point: 1700°C (Sphalerite)
- Boiling Point: 2200°C
- Density: 4.09 g/cm³ (Sphalerite)
- Solubility: Insoluble in water, soluble in dilute acids
Applications of Zinc Sulphide
Zinc sulphide's diverse properties make it a valuable material across various industries. Here are some prominent applications:
- Pigments: ZnS, particularly the opaque variety, finds use as a white pigment in paints, enamels, and ceramics. Its high refractive index enhances brightness and opacity.
- Phosphors: Doped zinc sulphide exhibits luminescence, making it a crucial component in phosphors used in cathode ray tubes (CRTs), television sets, and fluorescent lamps. When exposed to ultraviolet radiation or electron beams, these phosphors emit visible light.
- Solar Cells: Certain modifications of zinc sulphide show promise in developing efficient solar cells due to their light-absorbing properties.
- Semiconductors: Due to its electrical conductivity, ZnS finds application in some semiconductor devices, although other materials like silicon are more common.
- Cosmetics: Zinc sulphide, with its UV-protective properties, can be found in some sunscreens and cosmetics.
