· JVASP-10853· ZnFe2O4

Zinc ferrite (ZnFe2O4) is an inverse spinel ceramic compound combining zinc oxide and iron oxide phases, belonging to the ferrite family of magnetic ceramics. It is primarily used in electromagnetic applications including microwave absorbers, magnetic recording media, and catalytic systems, where its ferrimagnetic properties and chemical stability are exploited. Engineers select zinc ferrite for high-frequency applications requiring controlled magnetic permeability and loss characteristics, or for catalytic processes in environmental remediation and chemical synthesis where its surface reactivity is advantageous.

Regulatory Screening

Environmental

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
