Zinc Acetate Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Zinc Ethanoate
- zinc(II) Acetate
- Zinc Diacetate
Zinc acetate is a zinc salt for pharmaceutical-development, feed, textile, laboratory and industrial buyers in Malaysia. The product family includes anhydrous zinc acetate and zinc acetate dihydrate, so the hydrate basis should be stated rather than treating every white powder as one specification.
Anhydrous zinc acetate is identified by formula Zn(C2H3O2)2 and CAS 557-34-6, while the dihydrate is Zn(C2H3O2)2.2H2O and CAS 5970-45-6. Technical and higher-purity requirements may then add zinc assay, moisture, insoluble matter and trace-metal limits.
Buyers use zinc acetate as a zinc-salt intermediate, textile mordant, feed input, laboratory reagent and selected formulation raw material. The application matters because a feed, manufacturing or analytical requirement can use a different hydrate, purity and impurity basis.
Send the required form, grade, target specification, application, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation.

Zinc Acetate grades and forms
We supply several forms to suit different formulating and dosing setups. If you need a size that is not listed, ask us.
| Grade | Form | Assay | Typical use | Packing |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Anhydrous zinc acetate | white crystalline powder or granules | formula Zn(C2H3O2)2; CAS 557-34-6; assay and impurity limits confirmed against the quoted grade | Zinc salt and chemical intermediate applications where the anhydrous form and its water balance are specified by the process. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Zinc acetate dihydrate | white crystalline powder or crystals | formula Zn(C2H3O2)2.2H2O; CAS 5970-45-6; assay and impurity limits confirmed against the quoted grade | Laboratory, manufacturing, textile and formulation work where the common dihydrate form is required and the hydrate basis is part of the specification. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Technical zinc acetate | white crystalline solid | hydrate form, zinc content, moisture and trace-metal limits confirmed against the required grade | General industrial zinc-salt, mordant, precursor and process applications where a technical specification is acceptable. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Higher-purity zinc acetate | white crystalline powder or crystals | hydrate form, assay and trace impurity profile confirmed against the analytical or formulation requirement | Laboratory, pharmaceutical-development and other controlled formulations that need a tighter zinc acetate identity and impurity specification. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Zinc Acetate applications
Safety and handling
Keep containers closed in a cool, dry place and protect the powder from moisture, contamination and excessive heat. Identify the anhydrous or dihydrate basis during handling and follow the safety information for the quoted grade.
Common questions about zinc acetate
What is the difference between anhydrous zinc acetate and zinc acetate dihydrate?
They are two hydrate forms of zinc acetate with different water content, formula and CAS identifiers. The anhydrous form is Zn(C2H3O2)2, while the dihydrate is Zn(C2H3O2)2.2H2O. State the hydrate basis because the two forms are not always interchangeable in an assay or process calculation.
Which specifications should accompany a zinc acetate enquiry?
Include the hydrate form, zinc assay, moisture, insoluble matter, trace-metal limits, appearance, application, quantity and delivery location. A formulation or laboratory specification should be shared when the material must meet defined impurity or water-balance limits.
What is zinc acetate used for?
Zinc acetate is used as a zinc salt and intermediate in selected pharmaceutical, feed, textile, laboratory and general manufacturing applications. The correct grade depends on the hydrate state, assay, impurity profile and intended process.
Can zinc acetate be supplied as a higher-purity grade?
Higher-purity zinc acetate can be requested where assay and trace impurities are controlled more tightly than a general technical grade. State the analytical or formulation requirement, hydrate form, quantity and documents needed so the quoted material can be matched appropriately.
Is zinc acetate the same as zinc sulphate or zinc oxide?
No. Zinc acetate, zinc sulphate and zinc oxide are separate zinc products with different anions, physical forms and process behaviour. Choose the product named by the specification rather than substituting another zinc salt by application alone.
What details are needed for a zinc acetate price enquiry?
Provide the anhydrous or dihydrate form, grade, target specification, application, quantity and delivery location. Add preferred packing and document requirements so availability, commercial terms and quotation validity can be confirmed.
