Zinc pyrithione (or pyrithione zinc) is a coordination complex of zinc. It has fungistatic (inhibiting the division of fungal cells) and bacteriostatic (inhibiting bacterial cell division) properties and is used in the treatment of seborrhoeic dermatitis and dandruff.ZPT-as an ion carrier,penetrate cell membrane,bring proton into the cell,and take away potassium ion, such circulation destroy the ion grade on the two sides of cell membrane, lead to cell dead because the nutrition can not be transported. ZPT do not be consumed during this process so ZPT function can be lasted continuously, plus zinc has anti-inflammatory activity so ZPT has high efficient anti-fungi, anti-bacteria and anti-inflammatory activity.
It’s one of antidandruff active ingredient which internationally recognized,it has more than 30 years history which used in shampoo.
