[0002] Zinc ingot, also called zinc block, refers to the metal that is melted into block during the zinc smelting process. It has a silvery-white appearance. Zinc ingots are mainly used in die-casting alloys, battery industry, printing and dyeing industry, pharmaceutical industry, rubber industry, chemical industry and other fields. Zinc and other metal alloys are widely used in electroplating, spraying and other industries. Usually, after the zinc ingots are processed, the finished products need to be stacked on the other side or unloaded in subsequent use.
