Nano ZnO Transparent Aqueous Dispersion (5%)

ZnoNova Materials·TL-050901

A transparent, pale-yellow waterborne dispersion of nano zinc oxide, modified so it stays dispersed rather than re-agglomerating. It is transparent enough to be formulated into cosmetics without whitening them, and it reflects and blocks the 290–380 nm band, which covers both UVB and UVA. Supplied as a raw material to formulators.

Questions buyers ask

Is this the same zinc oxide as your Super Zinc feed additive?

No. Different product, different specification and different intended use. This one is a 5% transparent dispersion with a 300 nm flake morphology for cosmetic formulation; Super Zinc is a feed and livestock product. Do not substitute one for the other.

Will it make my formulation white?

It is specified as a transparent dispersion, which is the whole point of the flake morphology and the surface modification. Whiteness in the finished product still depends on your total loading and the rest of your formulation, so trial it.

What UV range does it cover?

290–380 nm, which spans UVB and the shorter part of UVA. We state the band rather than a protection factor for the reason given above.

Can you provide documentation for a cosmetic registration?

We can provide the datasheet, RoHS status and a per-batch CoA. We do not act as your regulatory consultant.
