Description
Zinc oxide is an inorganic oxide of minimum 99 % purity that meets Ph. Eur. and USP pharmacopoeia quality requirements. Identified by CAS number 1314-13-2 and empirical formula ZnO, it has a molar mass of 81,37 g/mol and a density of 5,68 g/cm³. The substance is EG number 215-222-5 and UN number 3077 support correct classification and handling documentation. This grade from manufacturer Carl ROTH is positioned for inorganic chemistry, salts in pharmacopoeia quality, and related analytical or preparative tasks. Zinc oxide is widely employed as a reagent and functional solid in pharmaceutical and materials contexts that call for defined purity and recognised monograph alignment.
