Industrial Applications of Zinc Acetate, anhydrous

Transesterification Catalyst: Enhanced Efficiency with Lohtragon^® O56
Our Lohtragon^® O56 | Zinc Acetate, anhydrous (CAS No. 557-34-6) is an effective catalyst for transesterification, offering faster reaction rates, higher yields, and better reaction control. It reduces unwanted saponification, and is easier to recover and recycle than traditional catalysts, making it ideal for transesterification processes.

Corrosion Inhibition for Glass Surfaces
Lohtragon^® O56 in home care formulations provides superior corrosion inhibition on glass surfaces, preserving clarity and structural integrity. It offers long-lasting protection while maintaining cleaning efficiency, making it a great choice for glass care.

Zinc Acetate, anhydrous in Glass and Ceramics
Zinc Acetate, anhydrous serves as a precursor in ceramics and glass production. When heated, it decomposes into zinc oxide, enhancing mechanical strength, thermal stability, and optical properties in high-quality glass and ceramics.

Blowing Agent for Polymer Additives
Lohtragon^® O56 | Zinc Acetate acts as a blowing agent in foamed plastics and rubber. It releases gases upon heating, creating a cellular structure that improves thermal insulation and flexibility, making it valuable for packaging, automotive, and construction applications.
