Zinc Carbonate Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- Carbonic Acid, Zinc Salt (1:1)
- zinc(II) Carbonate
- ZnCO3
Zinc carbonate supplier for rubber, coatings, plastics and industrial buyers in Malaysia. Zinc carbonate is a white ZnCO3 powder used as a zinc-containing process material, functional filler and intermediate where the formulation specifically calls for the carbonate.
Commercial requirements include general technical powder, rubber grade and fine-particle material for formulations where dispersion matters. Buyers may specify zinc content, loss on drying, particle size, residue and impurity limits to distinguish a suitable grade from an unspecific white powder.
Rubber and latex compounders use selected grades as a vulcanisation activator, processing aid or filler, while coatings and plastics buyers may focus on particle profile and dispersion. Manufacturers also enquire for zinc carbonate as an intermediate in zinc chemistry, ceramics and specialty preparations.
Send the required grade or application, target specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation and delivery timing are confirmed with the quotation, and zinc carbonate pricing is offered with a stated validity period.

Zinc Carbonate 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Technical grade zinc carbonate | white powder | — | Zinc-chemical manufacture, ceramics and general industrial formulations where the buyer specifies zinc carbonate rather than zinc oxide or another zinc salt. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Rubber grade zinc carbonate | fine white powder | — | Rubber and latex compounding where zinc carbonate is selected as a vulcanisation activator, processing aid or functional filler and the particle profile must suit the compound. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |
| Fine-particle zinc carbonate | fine white powder with a buyer-specified particle profile | — | Coatings, plastics and specialty formulations that require controlled dispersion, particle size or residue rather than a general technical powder. | Confirm the required pack format with the quotation. |

Safety and handling
Keep sealed and dry, protect the powder from contamination, control dust during handling and follow the safety information supplied with the quoted grade.
Common questions about zinc carbonate
Is zinc carbonate the same as basic zinc carbonate?
Not automatically. This page covers zinc carbonate, ZnCO3, identified by CAS 3486-35-9. Basic zinc carbonate is a different chemical composition and should not be substituted solely because a source uses a shortened trade description. Include the CAS number or formula from your specification when identity matters.
Which zinc carbonate grade should I request for rubber compounding?
Request a rubber or fine-powder grade and state the polymer system, application, particle-size target and any zinc-content or impurity limits. This helps distinguish a general technical powder from material selected for dispersion and compounding performance.
What specifications should a buyer provide for zinc carbonate powder?
State the required identity, zinc content or assay basis, particle size, loss on drying, residue and relevant impurity limits. An existing product specification is the clearest basis for matching the required grade.
Is zinc carbonate the same as zinc oxide?
No. Zinc carbonate is ZnCO3, while zinc oxide is ZnO. Both may appear in rubber, ceramics or other industrial formulations, but their chemistry and specifications differ. Enquire for the compound named by the process or formulation.
Can zinc carbonate be quoted for food or personal-care use?
Send the exact application, required grade, purity and impurity limits, and any documentation requested by the buyer's specification. Suitability, available documentation and packing are confirmed for the quoted grade. Supply is subject to applicable requirements.
What details are needed for a zinc carbonate price enquiry?
Provide the grade or end use, target specification, quantity and delivery location. Mention the preferred pack format and required product documents so those details can be addressed with the quotation.
