Brief Overview
Zinc sulphate monohydrate is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula ZnSO4·H2O. Zinc sulphate occurs in three types of hydrate. Zinc sulphate is listed on the World Health Organization’s List of Essential Medicines. The monohydrate exists as the gunningite mineral in nature.
Manufacturing Process
The main raw material of Zinc Sulphate monohydrate production is Sulphuric Acid. Sulphuric Acid is manufactured by oxidising Sulphur Dioxide gas to Sulphur Trioxide. Sulphur Trioxide is then hydrated to get Sulphuric Acid. Zinc Sulphate is prepared from reaction of Sulphuric acid & Zinc Oxide.
Zinc sulfate monohydrate is a readily-accessible form of zinc supplementation and is commonly used as an additive for livestock feed. This helps prevent zinc deficiencies in animals, which can lead to issues such as impaired reproduction, hair loss, reduced feed intake and growth, and skin lesions.
