zirconium and hafnium alloys
Zircon
Zirconium silicate (ZrSiO4) is known as
Zircon,
these mineral sands are a source of
zirconia
and
zirconium metal.
Zirconia
Zirconium dioxide ZrO2 also known as
Zirconia
is used as
refractory
material, in insulation, abrasives and vitreous
porcelain
enamels.
Hard ceramic zirconia is used in
oxygen sensors
and
fuel cell
membranes and
Tetragonal Zirconia Polycrystal, or TZP in fine grain ceramics.
AZS or AMZ
materials, zirconium corundum brick, alumina–mullite–zirconia refractory materials and
Zirconium carbide and zirconium nitride are used in refractory solids.
Cubic Zirconia
Cubic zirconia is synthesized in various colours for use as a
gemstones
and simulates the look of diamonds.
Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT)
Lead Zirconate Titanate (PZT) is the most commonly used piezoelectric material, with applications such as ultrasonic transducers,
hydrophones, common rail injectors, piezoelectric transformers and micro-actuators.
Ferro Zirconium
Ferro Zirconium 80% Zr 20% Iron
(FeZr)
is deoxidiser and a strong grain refiner and denitrifier,
classed as zircalloy grades that may contain between 40% and 90% Zr.
Ferro-Silicon-Zirconium FeSiZr alloy, typically the grade is identified with a number that
represents the Zr content which ranges between 15-40%.
Zirconium Extraction
In addition to producing
zirconium
by refining zircon mineral sands,
Zirconium is a by-product of the mining and processing of
tin
and of the titanium minerals
ilmenite
and
rutile.
