INDIAN ZINC INDUSTRY
Thursday, March 26, 2015
Zinc is a lustrous bluish-white metal. It is found in group IIb of the periodic table. It is brittle and crystalline at ordinary temperatures, but it becomes ductile and malleable when heated between 110°C and 150°C. It is a fairly reactive metal that will combine with oxygen and other non-metals, and will react with dilute acids to release hydrogen.
The industrial applications of zinc include: Paint / Coatings industry, The Chemical Industry, Petroleum and Lubrication Industry, Automotive, Building and Construction Industries.
About 12 million tons of zinc is produced annually worldwide. Half of this amount is used for galvanizing to protect steel from corrosion. Approximately 17% goes into the production of zinc base alloys, mainly to supply the die casting industry and 17% to produce brass and bronze. Significant amounts are also utilized in zinc semi-manufactures applications including roofing, gutters and down-pipes. The Capacity of zinc in India:
Current - 9, 17,000 MT
Projected – 9,79,000 MT by 2017
