Zirconium Oxide ZrO2 powder CAS 1314-23-4

About Zirconium Oxide ZrO2 powder:
Zirconium oxide (ZrO2), sometimes known as zirconia (not to be confused with zircon), is a white crystalline oxide of zirconium. Its most naturally occurring form, with a monoclinic crystalline structure, is the mineral baddeleyite. A dopant stabilized cubic structured zirconia, cubic zirconia, is synthesized in various colors for use as a gemstone and a diamond simulant. Our company also can supply zirconium oxide ceramic(zro2 ceramic) products

Zirconium oxide is chemically unreactive. It is slowly attacked by concentrated hydrofluoric acid and sulfuric acid. When heated with carbon, it converts to zirconium carbide. When heated with carbon in the presence of chlorine, it converts to zirconium tetrachloride.
Zirconium dioxide is one of the most studied ceramic materials. ZrO2 adopts a monoclinic crystal structure at room temperature and transitions to tetragonal and cubic at higher temperatures. The change of volume caused by the structure transitions from tetragonal to monoclinic to cubic induces large stresses, causing it to crack upon cooling from high temperatures.

Three phases are known: monoclinic below 1170 °C, tetragonal between 1170 °C and 2370 °C, and cubic above 2370 °C. The trend is for higher symmetry at higher temperatures, as is usually the case. A small percentage of the oxides of calcium or yttrium stabilize in the cubic phase. The very rare mineral tazheranite, (Zr, Ti, Ca)O2, is cubic. Unlike TiO2, which features six-coordinated titanium in all phases, monoclinic zirconia consists of seven-coordinated zirconium centers. This difference is attributed to the larger size of the zirconium atom relative to the titanium atom.

The ZrO2 band gap is dependent on the phase (cubic, tetragonal, monoclinic, or amorphous) and preparation methods, with typical estimates from 5–7 eV. A special case of zirconia is that of tetragonal zirconia polycrystal, or TZP, which is indicative of polycrystalline zirconia composed of only the metastable tetragonal phase.

How is Zirconium Oxide ZrO2 powder produced?
The industrial refractory material is fully stabilized zirconia, and most of the electric mete is made. Carbon and stabilizable calcium oxide were added to the zircon meter fuse, and the zirconia and calcium oxide was used to generate a solid solution, and then stably zirconia was produced while the zirconia and the calcium oxide was used to form a solid solution. Stable and partially stabilized zirconia used in fine ceramics is generally prepared with wet.

The most mature and commonly used is neutralization. The purified chloride zirconium is dissolved with pure water, filtrate the insoluble matter, adjust the zirconium concentration in the solution, and add the required amount of a cerium chloride solution (or other rare earth metal or alkaline chloride solution), add ammonia water Medium and precipitation. The precipitate was washed with hot water and then filtered, dried and calcined. Ultrafine stabilized zirconia powder can be obtained by treating the calcined product.
Partially stabilized zirconia is to control the amount of added stabilizer, which is not sufficient to achieve complete stability. Partially yttria zirconia has high strength and thermal shock resistance, and there is a relatively wide application in structural ceramics.
 
Applications of Zirconium Oxide ZrO2 powder:
For metal zirconium and zirconium compounds, fire bricks and crucibles, high-frequency ceramics, abrasive materials, ceramic pigments and zirconates are mainly used for piezoelectric ceramic products, daily ceramics, refractory materials and precious metals smelting Zirconium brick, zirconium tube, the crucible, etc.

Refractory
Zirconia fibers are polycrystalline refractory fiber material. Due to the high melting point of the ZrO2 substance itself, the non-oxidation and other high-temperature excellent characteristics, the ZrO2 fiber has higher use temperatures than other refractory fibers such as alumina fibers, mullite fibers, aluminum silicate fibers. The zirconia fiber is used for a long time in a super high-temperature oxidation atmosphere above 1500 ° C, and the highest temperature is as high as 2200 ° C, and even 2500 ° C can maintain a complete fiber shape, which is currently the top top of the topic. Fiber material.

Gas turbine
The application of plasma spray zirconium oxide thermal barrier coating on-air and industrial gas turbines has great progress, which has been used for turbine portions of gas turbines within a certain limit. Since this coating can reduce the temperature of 50 to 200 ° C of the air-cooled high-temperature member, the durability of the high-temperature member can significantly improve the durability of the high-temperature member, or improve the temperature of the gas temperature or reduce the amount of temperature required to maintain the high-temperature member. Change, thereby increasing the efficiency of the engine.

Ceramic material
Since the refractive index of zirconia is large, the melting point is high, the corrosion resistance is strong, so it is used in the kiln industry. Piezoelectric ceramic products include filters, speakers ultrasonic water detectors, and the like. There are also daily use ceramics (industrial ceramic glaze), zircon tiles and zirconium tubes for precious metal smelting. Nano-grade zirconia can also be used as a polishing agent, abrasive, piezoelectric ceramic, precision ceramic, ceramic glaze and high-temperature pigment matrix material.

Other
In addition, zirconia can be used in the manufacture of white-hot gas masks, enamel, white glass, the refractory crucible. X-ray photography. Grinding material. To make the light source lamp, thick film circuit capacitive material, piezoelectric crystal transducer formulation in infrared spectrometers.
