Zinkové

Zinkové is a term that can refer to several things, primarily related to the element zinc. In Czech, "zinkové" is the adjective form of "zinek," meaning "zinc." Therefore, it is used to describe something made of, containing, or related to zinc. For example, "zinkové pozinkování" translates to "zinc galvanizing," a common process for protecting steel from corrosion by coating it with a layer of zinc. Similarly, "zinkové slitiny" refers to zinc alloys, which are mixtures of zinc with other metals, often used in die casting due to their low melting point and good fluidity. "Zinkové barvy" can denote paints or pigments that contain zinc compounds, such as zinc oxide, which has been historically used as a white pigment and in sunscreens for its protective properties. In a broader context, the term might be encountered in discussions of mining or metallurgy where zinc ore or zinc production is being discussed. The specific meaning of "zinkové" is usually clear from the surrounding context.
