ZINC OXIDE 104 Treated

ZINC OXIDE GRADE 104 Treated is a brilliant white powder manufactured by the French (Indirect) Process. ZINC OXIDE GRADE 104 Treated is our most popular medium particle size zinc oxide offering high assay and very low impurities. Grade 104 meets GMP 21CFR110, is USFDA approved as GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) at 21cfr182.8991 and is authorized by the USFDA for use wherever GRAS is approved including food contact in rubber, plastics, and coatings. Grade 104 also meets the requirements of ASTM specification D79, 2002/95/EC Restriction of Hazardous Substances Directive (RoHS) for heavy metals and Waste Electrical and Electronic Directive (WEEE), and other regulations where high quality zinc oxide is required.
