Zinc Pyrithione (ZPT) is a powerful antimicrobial and antifungal agent used in personal-care, cosmetic, and industrial formulations. It is especially effective against Malassezia species that cause dandruff and seborrheic dermatitis. It also serves as a preservative and anti-algal additive in paints and coatings.
ZPT disrupts microbial metabolism by blocking membrane transport, interfering with energy production, and inhibiting cell division and respiration—reducing scalp flaking, itching, and fungal growth.
