Zinc oxide
氧化锌
Not classified as DG for transport but is a marine pollutant. Ships in 25 kg bags or 1 t big bags. Rubber-grade is the largest sink (tyres, shoe soles); pharma-grade and food-grade have tighter heavy-metal limits. Chinese capacity concentrated in Yunnan, Hunan, Henan.

Typical Chinese supplier geography
Major Chinese capacity sits in Yunnan, Hunan, Henan. Coastal producers (Shandong, Jiangsu, Zhejiang) typically dominate export volume because of port access; inland producers (Inner Mongolia, Xinjiang, Shaanxi) compete on raw-material cost but add inland-rail or trucking cost to reach the coast.
Sourcing documentation chain
Every shipment of Zinc oxide from China should include a per-batch COA, a current SDS per GB/T 17519 on the China side and the destination jurisdiction's standard on the import side, a packing list, a bill of lading, and a certificate of origin. For Incoterms reference see FOB, CIF, and CFR.
