Zinc laurate

Ref. 3D-FZ175592

Product Information

• Name: Zinc laurate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Zinc laurate is a zinc salt of a fatty acid. It is a light-emitting material that emits in the near-infrared region, with a peak wavelength of 740 nm. Zinc laurate has been shown to have antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria and fungi when used as a substrate film. It also shows strong bactericidal activity against Gram-negative bacteria. In addition, zinc laurate is capable of forming films that can be used as an anti-fouling agent for surfaces in water vapor environments.; The following are some examples of the physical properties of Zinc Laurate:; ; Molecular weight: 598.5 g/mol; Density: 1.1 g/cm3 (at 25 °C); Melting point: 639 °C ; Boiling point: 1416 °C ; Thermal expansion coefficient: 18 x 10−6 (K−1) ; Distance between layers
