“…At the same time, ZnO is also the only known material with dual characteristics of semiconductor and piezoelectric, which has a very broad development space in energy conversion, especially in micro/nano electronic devices and micro/nano power supply. As the size of nano-ZnO is between atomic clusters and macroscopic particles, it has many special properties that macroscopic materials do not have, and it shows attractive application prospects in many aspects such as electricity, magnetism, chemistry, light, and sensitivity [ 13 ].…”

To solve the problem of liquid-phase synthesis of nano-ZnO, a photocatalytic performance study was proposed. In this study, the microwave homogeneous precipitation method was used to add different types and amounts of surfactants. The synthesis of nano-zinc oxide was controlled by changing the reaction system conditions. The photocatalytic properties of nano-zinc oxide for degrading three water-soluble dyes were preliminarily studied and discussed. The results show that the photocatalytic performance of nano-ZnO is closely related to its size, morphology, specific surface area, and even crystallographic direction.

“…Excluded from the present review were studies employing zinc, materials with high ZnO contents or zinc tailing waste as filler, ZnO as a modifier of hydraulic cements, soil stabilizers, etc. (e.g., [1,21,[32][33][34][35][36][37]). Also excluded were articles in which asphalt binders were modified with ZnO-like materials, such as Zinc dialkyl dithiophosphate or zinc diethyldithiocarbamate (e.g., [38][39][40]).…”

“…ZnO is generally classified as a colorless and low-toxicity material that does not cause skin or eye irritation; additionally, there is no evidence of carcinogenicity, genotoxicity, or toxicity in humans [19,20]. However, the dust can be hazardous by inhalation or ingestion [21], as it causes a condition known as zinc fever [5]. The current evidence shows that ZnO particles and nanoparticles do not penetrate skin cells and remain in the outer layer of undamaged skin (the stratum corneum) with low systemic toxicity [22].…”

The Use of Zinc Oxide in Asphalts: Review

Zinc oxide (ZnO) is a wide-gap semiconducting material which is chemically stable at high temperatures and has been shown to be compatible with asphalt binders. Additionally, semiconducting nanoparticles such as ZnO could help to improve urban air quality. This has encouraged the use of this material as a binder and asphalt mix modifier. A review on the use of ZnO as an asphalt binder modifier was conducted in this study. Based on the review which we carried out, the following were mainly synthesized and described: the content of ZnO as a modifier, the mixing processes of the binder and the ZnO, the manufacturing process of the modified mix, the type of asphalt binder and/or modified mix, the tests carried out, general conclusions, and environmental effects. ZnO micro-particles increase the aging resistance of the asphalt binder (mainly to ultraviolet radiation (UV)). ZnO tends to increase rutting resistance and adhesion with aggregates, improving resistance to moisture damage. It also tends to improve binder fatigue resistance. At low service temperatures, the performance of ZnO as a modifier is unclear, and further studies should be performed. Few studies have evaluated the effect of ZnO on the environment when it is used as an asphalt binder modifier. Future studies should evaluate the effect of this technology on the environment, perform economic analyses, evaluate the physical–chemical interaction of the modified binder with the aggregate, and measure the long-term properties of asphalt mixtures. ZnO is viewed as an environmentally friendly material and as a promising modifier of asphalt binders for pavement construction.
