Zinc molybdate (ZnMoO4) is an inorganic ceramic compound combining zinc and molybdenum oxides, belonging to the family of metal molybdates used as functional ceramics and additives. It is primarily employed as a corrosion inhibitor in coatings and primers, a flame-retardant additive in polymers, and a pigment in specialized applications where chemical stability and thermal resistance are required. Engineers select ZnMoO4 over conventional inhibitors because of its effectiveness at low concentrations, environmental compatibility compared to chromate-based alternatives, and ability to function across a wide temperature range without decomposition.
