Past Applications for Zinc Needles
Filler for brake and clutch friction pads
Zinc needles offer the perfect amount of sturdiness for clutch friction pads in vehicles. When friction is initiated between the engine and transmission, the zinc in the pads help absorb the force safely and efficiently.
Feedstock for chemical applications
Zinc is a great feedstock for large-scale chemical reactions.
Feedstock for battery applications
Lithium-ion battery production is ramping up as electric vehicles gain popularity. Zinc is among the several raw materials used in this production.
Feedstock for fuel cell applications
Fuel cells touch a number of vital industries including transportation, portable, and emergency backup power. Zinc needles are one of the key catalysts to keeping these in motion.
Briquetting binder in master alloys
Just as briquette binders play such a key role in the process of briquette production, zinc plays a huge role in the briquetting binders themselves.
