What is zinc pyrithione?

Due to its antibacterial, anti-fungal and anti-microbial properties, ZPT is used as an ingredient in skin care and hair products. Zinc pyrithione is a broad-spectrum antibacterial agent with the molecular formula C10H8N2O2S2Zn and cas number 13463-41-7.

ZPT-50 is a superfine water suspension of Zinc Pyrithione. ZPT-50 has been used in the shampoo industry for more than 30 years, the anti-dandruff effect is exact, and it is the world's largest anti-dandruff agent. Its anti-dandruff mechanism is based on its strong inhibition of pityriasis oviformis, which produces dandruff.
