Hot-pressed Polycrystalline Zinc Sulphide is a kind of infrared optical material with a wide transmittance range. HP ZnS is made from high pure zinc sulphide raw material under vacuum and high temperature condition,which has good infrared transmission and thermal property and high impact overloading resistance. Since it can be directly pressed into large size plates and spherical dome windows with various curvature radius, HP ZnS has been widely used to make infrared detector dome windows for defenses, security and aerospace applications.
