Zirconium Silicate

Zirconium Silicate

Zirconium silicate (ZrSiO₄) is a natural inorganic compound known for its excellent high-temperature and corrosion resistance. It is widely used in refractory materials, ceramics, glass, and the nuclear industry. Typically found as white or transparent crystals, it is primarily sourced from zircon ore.

  Description

Zirconium silicate (ZrSiO₄) is a stable, high-melting-point inorganic mineral, commonly found in the Earth's crust. It has a melting point over 2500°C and exhibits excellent resistance to acids, alkalis, and high temperatures. Due to these properties, it is used in the production of refractory materials, ceramics, and glass. Zirconium silicate is also crucial in the nuclear industry as a material for nuclear reactors, owing to its stability under radiation. In addition, it is employed in electronic components and optical materials. Its high hardness, chemical stability, and thermal resistance make it valuable across various advanced industrial applications.
