The spread of the novel coronavirus is taking a direct hit on the operations of airlines in Asia. About 500,000 flights taking off and landing in mainland China have been canceled since January, according to aviation information company Cerium. Tourists and business trips have plummeted. On the booking website, there are a large number of air tickets for local routes with a price reduction of nearly 90% compared with the original price and only tens of yuan for a one-way trip.In February, China’s aviation industry recorded its largest single-month loss of 24.59 billion yuan, of which airlines lost 20.96 billion yuan.Data from the Civil Aviation Administration of China showed that in February, the number of passengers traveling by air fell 84.5% year-on-year to 8.34 million.The stagnation of the Asian aviation industry has brought volatility to zinc sulphide.

What is zinc sulfide?

Zinc sulfide is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula ZnS, which is
a white or slightly yellow powder, which becomes darker when exposed to light.
It is stable in dry air, and gradually oxidizes to zinc sulfate when placed in
humid air for a long time or when it contains moisture. White or slightly yellow
powder. It turns into crystals when burned in H2S gas. The α variant is a
colorless hexagonal crystal with a density of 3.98g/cm3 and a melting point of
1700°C; Exist in sphalerite. Insoluble in water, soluble in acid. See the sun
color darken.

Zinc sulfide (ZnS) is a naturally occurring salt and a major source of zinc.
It exists in two common crystalline forms (polymorphs): sphalerite
(“sphalerite”), which has a cubic crystal structure and is the predominant form
in nature.

It will be converted into zinc sulfate when placed in humid air for a long
time. It is generally derived from the action of hydrogen sulfide and zinc salt
solution. If a small amount of Cu, Mn and Ag are added to the crystal ZnS as
activators, they can emit different colors of fluorescence after being
illuminated. For analytical reagents, coatings, paints, white and opaque glass,
filling rubber, plastics, and for the preparation of phosphors.

What is zinc sulphide used for?

The most common use of zinc sulfide is as a pigment in paints, plastics and
rubber. It can also be used as an analytical reagent, a matrix of phosphors, a
photoconductor material; it can also be used in the manufacture of dyes,
coatings, pigments, glass, and curing oil.
