Zinc Octoate (22%) or Zinc 2-ethylhexanoate is a zinc-based metal carboxylate used primarily as a catalyst and drier in coatings and paints. Its primary role is to facilitate the oxidation of drying oils, enhancing the curing process in coatings. Zine octate is also used in the production of polyurethane and as a hydrogen sulfide/sulphide scavenger in certain applications. As zinc salt of 2-ethylhexanoic acid, which is often referred to as "octoic acid". Chemically a different chemical compound from zinc stearate, with a shorter fatty acid chain. Zinc Octoate is typically supplied as a liquid and is used as a paint drier, catalyst, and stabiliser and effective in enhancing the curing process in both alkyd paints and oil-based coatings. Also referred to as Zinc bis(2-ethylhexanoate) & Zinc 2-ethylhexoate by Zinc Octoate manufacturers. We are the leading, trusted zinc octoate supplier worldwide and in the United States, with reliable lead times and global supply capability.

Zinc Octoate is used in paint formulations as a drier to regulate drying times and improve the oxidative curing of coatings.
Used as a catalyst in the production of polyurethane foams, improving reaction rates and product consistency.
In hydrocarbon materials, Zinc Octoate removes hydrogen sulfide, particularly in applications involving asphalt.
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from moisture and incompatible materials.
Available in bulk containers, drums, and small pack sizes suitable for industrial and commercial use.
Zinc Octoate is used as a catalyst and drier in industrial paint and coating formulations and is also used in polyurethane production and as a hydrogen sulfide scavenger in certain applications.
Zinc Octoate accelerates the curing process in oil-based paints and alkyd coatings by acting as a drier, improving drying time and promoting the oxidative curing of the materials.
Zinc Octoate should be handled with care, using appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), such as gloves and goggles, to avoid skin and eye irritation.
Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area and ensure containers are tightly sealed when not in use to maintain product quality.
