Zinc sulfide is used in preparation of flexible transparent conductive coatings essential for fabrication of a variety of printed electronic devices such as flexible displays and solar cells. Used to prepare a composite CdS-ZnS/Zirconium-titanium phosphate (ZTP) photocatalyst for hydrogen production under visible light and also applied for light-controlled bioelectrochemical sensors based on CdSe/ZnS quantum dots. It is used for preparation of color tunable light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and also applied to prepare (CdS-ZnS)-TiO2 combined photocatalysts for electricity production via photoelectrocatalysis. It is used as a catalyst for synthesis of spirooxindole derivatives in aqueous medium via Knoevenagel condensation followed by Michael addition.
