Uses of Zinc acetate, dihydrate: It can be used to treat zinc deficiencies. As an oral daily supplement, Zinc acetate, dihydrate is used to inhibit the body's absorption of copper that is the part of the treatment for Wilson's disease. In addition, Zinc acetate, dihydrate, is also sold as an astringent in the form of an ointment, a topical lotion; or combined with an antibiotic such as erythromycin for the topical treatment of acne. Furthermore, Zinc acetate, dihydrate is commonly sold as a topical anti-itch ointment. What's more, Zinc acetate, dihydrate is also used as a dietary supplement and in lozenges used to treat the common cold. It is thought that the treatment of Zinc acetate, dihydrate alone is more effective that zinc gluconate. Besides,the industrial applications of Zinc acetate include wood preserving, manufacturing other zinc salts, polymers, manufacture of ethylene acetate, as a dye mordant, and analytical reagent. More important, Zinc acetate is known as a precursor via a sol-gel route to the transparent semiconductor zinc oxide.
