  • Zinc Pyrithione Supplier?

    Posted by guadalupe3 on January 31, 2017 at 6:11 am

    Does anyone know where I can purchase Zinc Pyrithione in small batches?

    Google search seems to only show Zinc Oxide available.

    Thank you

    I am not aware of any small scale suppliers of this material.

    Before you go much further, take a look at https://chemistscorner.com/cosmeticsciencetalk/discussion/comment/17362/#Comment_17362

    You might not want to proceed.

    Try Kumar Organics or Salicylates & Chemicals from India, not sure though where you are located. They can sell 25 Kg by air.

    I’ll second chemist77’s suggestion. Salicylates (India) sells Salidruff, which is suspension grade zinc pyrithione.  If you are in the U.S. (or NAFTA, for now) you may purchase the standard 49% suspension from Kraft Chemical Company in Melrose Park, Illinois.
