Zinc Nitrate Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- zinc(II) Nitrate
- Zinc Dinitrate
- Zn(NO3)2
Zinc nitrate supplier enquiries in Malaysia cover zinc(II) nitrate, Zn(NO3)2, a soluble zinc salt used in catalyst, ceramic, electronic-material, textile and laboratory processes. The common solid form is the hexahydrate, supplied as colourless to white crystals or crystalline powder.
Technical, higher-purity, reagent and anhydrous grades serve different process requirements. Hydration state affects the composition carried into a charge or solution, while zinc basis, chloride, iron, insoluble matter and other impurity limits may decide whether a grade fits the specification.
Manufacturers use zinc nitrate as a soluble zinc source for zinc oxide and catalyst routes, ceramic processing and selected surface-treatment chemistry. Electronic-material, textile and laboratory buyers may require tighter trace-metal controls or a defined hydrate, so the intended use should be stated at enquiry stage.
Send the hydration state, grade, specification, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Availability, packing, documentation, route and timing are confirmed with the quotation, and supply is subject to applicable requirements.

Zinc Nitrate 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 zinc nitrate hexahydrate | colourless to white crystals or crystalline powder | — | General zinc salt, catalyst and ceramic process chemistry where the soluble hexahydrate and a technical impurity profile are specified. | Packing format is confirmed with the quotation. |
| Higher-purity zinc nitrate hexahydrate | crystalline powder | — | Electronic-material, catalyst and laboratory work requiring tighter control of iron, chloride, insoluble matter or other trace impurities. | Packing format is confirmed with the quotation. |
| Anhydrous zinc nitrate | crystalline solid or powder | — | Synthesis and materials processes where water of crystallisation cannot be carried into the charge and anhydrous Zn(NO3)2 is specified. | Packing format is confirmed with the quotation. |

Zinc Nitrate applications
Safety and handling
Keep containers sealed and dry, protect the crystalline salt from contamination and follow the safety information supplied with the quoted grade. Supply is subject to applicable requirements.
Common questions about zinc nitrate
Which hydration form of zinc nitrate should I specify?
Zinc nitrate is commonly requested as the hexahydrate, while anhydrous zinc nitrate is selected when water of crystallisation cannot enter the process. State the hydration state, grade, zinc basis and intended use so the two forms are quoted against the correct specification.
Is zinc nitrate the same as zinc sulphate?
No. They are different zinc salts with different anions and process behaviour. Zinc nitrate is selected when the nitrate counter-ion is part of the route, while zinc sulphate has its own application and impurity requirements. Order the salt named by the formulation.
What is zinc nitrate used for?
It is used as a soluble zinc source in catalyst preparation, zinc oxide and ceramic chemistry, electronic-material processing, selected textile work and laboratory solution preparation. The grade and hydrate depend on how the salt enters the process.
What specifications should a zinc nitrate enquiry include?
Provide the hydration state, grade, zinc content basis, moisture and impurity limits, physical form, quantity and delivery location. Include limits for chloride, iron, insoluble matter or other trace metals when the process needs them controlled.
How should zinc nitrate be stored?
Keep the crystals or powder sealed in a dry store and protect them from contamination or unintended moisture exchange. Follow the safety information supplied with the quoted grade and the buyer's workplace handling procedure.
How is zinc nitrate priced for Malaysian buyers?
Price depends on the hydration state, grade, zinc basis, impurity limits, quantity and delivery location. Send the full requirement so the quotation can be issued with a stated validity period and confirmed commercial terms.
