With a specific gravity of about <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>5.6 g\/cm\u00b3<\/strong><\/span>, ZnO is one of the heaviest materials commonly used in concentrated suspension fertilizer formulations.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0According to <span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>Stokes\u2019 Law of sedimentation velocity<\/strong><\/span>, particles with higher density settle faster.
