Tetrapodal zinc oxide

Stability meets high porosity

Tetrapodal zinc oxide (t-ZnO) is characterized by its unique tetrapod shape, which gives it remarkable mechanical stability.

The structure allows forces acting on one arm to be effectively transferred to the others. This property results in a macroscopic, cohesive architecture with a very high porosity unmatched by conventional spherical ZnO particles.

This material offers a multitude of advantages for medical and technical applications.

Innovative material properties

The special 3D geometry of t-ZnO is formed in a special growth process. This structured peculiarity leads to different, exposed facets, resulting in useful physical and chemical properties for various technological applications.

Wide range of applications

By varying the synthesis parameters, the ZnO can be produced in a variety of other morphologies, opening up a wide range of potential applications. From the reinforcement of composite materials to use in optoelectronic devices – t-ZnO brings innovative solutions for industry and research that go beyond the limits of conventional materials and open up new possibilities for medicine and materials science.
