Zinc Titanate Powder (ZnTiO3, 99.9%, 50-60µm)

Zinc Titanate Powder

Zinc Titanate powder is an inorganic compound composed of zinc and titanium. It typically appears as a white to off-white powder and is part of the family of metal oxides. Zinc titanate forms in a perovskite-like structure and is known for its ceramic and semiconductor properties. The compound is produced through the combination of zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium dioxide (TiO₂), often under high-temperature conditions.

Applications:

Catalysis:

Zinc titanate is often used as a catalyst or catalyst support in various chemical reactions, particularly in the production of fine chemicals, petrochemical refining, and environmental processes. It has demonstrated good catalytic activity in oxidation reactions, hydrogenation, and dehydrogenation processes.

In automotive catalytic converters, ZnTiO₃ may be used to facilitate the reduction of nitrogen oxides (NOₓ) or the oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbons (HCs) into less harmful compounds. The compound’s high thermal stability and surface area make it an ideal material for use in catalytic processes that require high temperatures.

Electroceramics and Dielectrics:

Zinc titanate is used in the manufacture of electroceramic materials for applications in capacitors, dielectric resonators, and varistors. Its ability to have a high dielectric constant makes it useful in high-frequency applications in telecommunications, electronic devices, and sensor technologies.

In ceramics, ZnTiO₃ can serve as a dielectric material in multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCCs) and other electronic components where stable electrical properties are required under different temperature and voltage conditions.

Photocatalysis:

Zinc titanate exhibits photocatalytic activity, especially when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light. It can be used in environmental applications to degrade pollutants, remove organic compounds, and clean wastewater. This property makes it useful in air and water purification technologies.
