Chemical composition of cement powder influences the setting time and early compressive strength development. The setting time increases as the amounts of zinc oxide and magnesium oxide are increased. For one day compressive strength development, a cement powder with a composition 90% ZnO, 8% MgO and 2% silica resulted in the highest strength (greater than 1, 090 kg/$\textrm{cm}^2$). Cement-forming liquids also need to be buffered, with both aluminum and zinc ions, for a good consistency and a higher strength of the zinc phosphate cement. These liquids control the setting reactions.

This work investigated the influence of concentration and applied potential on the characteristics of zinc powder (purity, apparent density, morphology, particle size distribution, and particle zeta potential) produced by the electrochemical process from waste brass. High-purity zinc powder is obtained using selective leaching of industrial brass waste in acidic, neutral, and alkaline solutions. The free immersion method with and without voltage using linear polarization technique is used. In the electrochemical process, hydrochloric acid HCl in three different concentrations (0.1, 0.2, and 0.3) M is used. The time and the distance between the electrodes are set to be 30 min and 3 cm, respectively. It has been found that the percentage purity is 98%, 96%, and 94% for the acidic, neutral, and alkaline solutions, respectively. In addition, the morphology of zinc powder analyzed by SEM was dendritic and mossy. It has been recorded that the purity of zinc increases with the increase of the concentration and applied potential. The highest value of purity for zinc powder was %98.58 in 1000 mV and 0.3M concentration for graphite cathode.

This paper describes the feasibility for a direct production of zinc oxalate powders from zinc-loaded D2EHPA solutions combining the purification and the precipitation in one operation unit. This process has the potential as an alternative to conventional method for the synthesis of zinc oxide precursor particles from the hydrometal-lurgical processes. Zinc was extracted into D2EHPA in kerosene and then zinc-loaded D2EHPA solution was emulsified with oxalic acid-HCl solution to precipitate zinc oxalate powder, which was readily calcined to zinc oxide. The precipitation kinetics and yield were sensitive to experimental conditions. The morphology, size and size distribution of the zinc oxalate powders varied with zinc/oxalate ion riatio, temperature, and the presence of SPAN 60, which affected nucleation, growth, and the emulsion characteristics.

Synthesis of zinc oxide nanorods, sheets and flower like structure were done by the sol-gel method using zinc acetate dihydrate and sodium hydroxide at $80^{\circ}C$ with 12 hours refluxing time nanorods, in case of as synthesized powder, with diameter of 20-60nm. Annealing at higher temperature (300 and $500^{\circ}C$,) in air ambient changes the morphology to sheet and flower like structure. The standard peak of zinc oxide was observed in IR at $523cm^{-1}$. The UV-VIS spectroscopy of zinc oxide shows a characteristic peak at 375nm.

Dissolution of Antheraea pernyi silk fiber was carried out in a zinc nitrate 6 hydrate (Zn(NO$_3$)$_2$ㆍ6$H_2O$) solution with various dissolving conditions. The solubility was significantly dependent on the concentration of zinc nitrate, dissolving temperature and time. Regenerated A. pernyi silk fibroin powder was obtained through dialysis process to remove chaotropic salt. FTIR and X-ray diffractometer showed that the conformation of regenerated A. pernyi silk powder was sheet structure.

To prepare zinc oxide powder, three types of sodium-based alkali precipitants such as NaOH, Na₂CO₃, NaOH/NaHCO₃ were compared to the differences in the manufacturing process of zinc oxide powder from zinc precipitate products like intermediates with the consideration of thermodynamic reaction. The prepared zinc precipitate products by the reaction with the sodium-based alkali precipitant were confirmed to respectively hydroxy zinc chloride (Zn₅(OH)₈Cl₂·H₂O) and zinc carbonate hydroxide (Zn₅(OH)₆(CO₃)₂·H₂O) from XRD analysis. Zinc oxide particles were compared in heat treatment at 800℃ according to sodium-based alkali precipitants. The mixed NaOH and NaHCO₃ of alkali precipitant reaction was contributed to synthesize the more uniform zinc oxide particles.

The electrochemical performance for the corrosion of zinc anodes according to particle size and shape as anode in Zn/air batteries was study. We prepared five samples of Zn powder with different particle size and morphology. For analysis the particle size of theme, we measured particle size analysis (PSA). As the result, sample (e) had smaller particle size with $10.334{\mu}m$ than others. For measuring the electrochemical performance of them, we measured the cyclic voltammetry and linear polarization in three electrode system (half-cell). For measuring the morphology change of them before and after cyclic voltammetry, we measured Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM). From the cyclic voltammetry, as the zinc powder had small size, we knew that it had large diffusion coefficient. From the linear polarization, as the zinc powder had small size, it was a good state with high polarization resistance as anode in Zn/air batteries. From the SEM images, the particle size had increased due to the dendrite formation after cyclic voltammetry. Therefore, the sample (e) with small size would have the best electrochemical performance between these samples.

Mechanochemical synthesis of zinc ferrite, $ZnFe_2O_4$, was attempted from a powder mixture of iron (III) oxide, alpha-$Fe_2O_3$ and zinc (II) oxide, ZnO. Nanocrystalline zinc ferrite, $ZnFe_2O_4$ powders were successfully synthesized only bymilling for 30 hours. Evidence of the $ZnFe_2O_4$ formation was absent for the powders milled for 10 and 20 hours; the milling lowered the crystallinity of the starting materials. Heating after milling enhanced the formation of $ZnFe_2O_4$, crystal growth of $ZnFe_2O_4$ and the unreacted starting materials. The unreacted starting materials decreased their amounts by heating at higher temperatures.

ZnO nanoparticles in the size range from 5 to 15 nm were prepared by zinc-lithium-acetate system. The morphologies and structures of ZnO were characterized by TEM, XRD and FT-IR spectra. UV-visible results shows that the absorption of ZnO nanoparticles is blue shifted with decrease in particles size. Furthermore, photoluminescence spectra of the ZnO nanoparticles were also investigated. The ZnO nanoparticles have strong visible-emission intensity and their intensities depend upon size of ZnO nanoparticles.
