Zinc Naphthenate, For Industrial, Grade: Chemical Grade

Product Description: Zinc Naphthenate (Chemical Grade)

Zinc naphthenate, a chemical compound formed by the combination of zinc with naphthenic acid, is a versatile and effective wood preservative widely used in industrial applications. Formulated to chemical grade standards, zinc naphthenate offers exceptional performance in protecting wood against decay, fungal growth, and insect damage, making it an indispensable solution in the lumber and timber industry.

Key Features:

Powerful Wood Preservative: Zinc naphthenate acts as a potent wood preservative, penetrating deep into the wood fibers to provide long-lasting protection against decay, rot, mildew, and wood-boring insects. It extends the service life of wood products, reducing maintenance costs and enhancing durability.

Broad-Spectrum Antifungal Properties: With its broad-spectrum antifungal properties, zinc naphthenate effectively inhibits the growth of decay-causing fungi, including brown rot, white rot, and soft rot, ensuring the structural integrity and stability of treated wood.

Insect Repellent: Zinc naphthenate acts as a natural insect repellent, deterring wood-damaging pests such as termites, beetles, and ants from infesting and feeding on treated wood, thereby preventing structural damage and preserving the aesthetic appeal of wood products.

Chemical Grade Standard: Manufactured to chemical grade standards, our zinc naphthenate product undergoes rigorous quality control measures to ensure purity, consistency, and compliance with industry regulations and safety guidelines.

Versatile Application: Zinc naphthenate can be applied to a variety of wood species, including softwoods and hardwoods, as well as wood composites and engineered wood products. It is suitable for both pressure treatment and surface application methods, offering flexibility and versatility in wood preservation practices.

Applications:

Lumber and Timber Treatment: Zinc naphthenate is commonly used for the preservation of lumber, timber, fence posts, utility poles, railroad ties, and other wood products exposed to outdoor weathering and ground contact.

Construction and Building Materials: Zinc naphthenate-treated wood finds applications in outdoor structures, decks, fences, bridges, docks, and marine applications where protection against decay, rot, and insect damage is essential.

Utility and Infrastructure: Zinc naphthenate is utilized in utility pole treatment to prolong the service life of wooden utility poles and transmission poles, reducing the risk of structural failure and ensuring reliable electrical distribution networks.

Wooden Structures: Zinc naphthenate-treated wood is used in the construction of wooden buildings, sheds, barns, and agricultural structures to safeguard against fungal decay and insect infestation, preserving the structural integrity and longevity of wooden structures.

Safety Considerations:

Proper handling and application procedures should be followed when using zinc naphthenate to minimize exposure and ensure worker safety.

Personal protective equipment (PPE), including gloves, goggles, and protective clothing, should be worn during handling and application of zinc naphthenate.

Appropriate ventilation measures should be implemented to prevent inhalation of fumes or vapors during application.

Storage of zinc naphthenate should be in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from sources of ignition and incompatible materials.

Zinc naphthenate, manufactured to chemical grade standards, offers reliable and effective wood preservation solutions for industrial applications, providing durable protection against decay, rot, and insect damage in a variety of wood products. Trust in the quality and performance of zinc naphthenate to safeguard your wood investments and ensure long-term durability and reliability.
