Method
The zinc ingot obtained by electrolysis is heated to 600-700℃ to melt, and then placed in a high-temperature resistant crucible to melt and vaporize at a high temperature of 1250-1300℃. Hot air is introduced for oxidation. The generated zinc oxide is cooled and cyclone separated, and the fine particles are captured with a cloth bag to obtain the finished zinc oxide product.
Zinc oxide is a multifunctional and safe ingredient widely used in cosmetic and dermatological formulations. Owing to its mildness, broad-spectrum protection, and soothing properties, it has become one of the most important active ingredients in modern skin care.
Natural Sunscreen Agent
Provides reliable physical protection against UV rays by forming a protective barrier on the skin. Unlike some chemical UV filters, zinc oxide is non-irritating, non-comedogenic, and suitable for long-term use.
Skin Protection & Barrier Function
Creates a breathable protective film on the skin surface, reducing trans-epidermal water loss (TEWL). This makes it ideal for daily moisturizers, BB creams, and multifunctional skin-care formulations.
Soothing & Anti-Irritation
Its calming effect makes it valuable for sensitive skin care. It helps relieve redness, itching, and irritation caused by external aggressors, often used in after-sun products and baby care creams.
Color & Opacity in Formulations
Used as a pigment extender and whitening agent in makeup products such as foundations, pressed powders, and primers, enhancing coverage and uniform skin tone.
Sebum Control & Oil Absorption
Its absorbent nature helps regulate oil secretion, making it suitable for oily skin formulations, anti-acne cosmetics, and mattifying powders.
Anti-Pollution & Urban Skin Care
Functions as a physical shield against fine particles, environmental toxins, and blue light exposure, addressing the growing demand for anti-pollution skincare in urban markets.
