Zirconium silicate CAS#10101-52-7

Zirconium silicate CAS#10101-52-7

Basic Information

Zirconium silicate
ZrSiO₄

Zirconium silicate, or zircon, is a hard, chemically inert silicate mineral with a high melting point and low wettability toward molten metals. These properties give it durability, alkali resistance and the ability to improve casting surface quality. It is used in refractory materials, ceramic bodies, enamels and glazes as an opacifier, and in special cement, grinding beads and industrial casting. Thin-film versions are investigated as alternative gate-dielectric materials.

product description

High Hardness and Durability: Zircon has a high Mohs hardness of 7.5, providing excellent durability and resistance to wear.


Excellent Chemical Inertness: Its strong chemical stability makes zircon highly resistant to chemical reactions and environmental conditions.


High Melting Point: Zircon can withstand very high temperatures, making it suitable for high-temperature industrial applications.


Improves Casting Surface Quality: Due to its low wettability with molten metals, zircon helps produce smoother surfaces in castings of iron, high-alloy steel, aluminum, and bronze.


Product Application of Zirconium silicate CAS#10101-52-7

Zircon (ZrSiO₄) is an accessory nesosilicate mineral commonly found in granitic rocks. It features a Mohs hardness of 7.5 and outstanding chemical inertness, so it readily accumulates in weathered igneous rock residues including alluvial placers and beach sands. With superior chemical stability and a high melting point, zircon exhibits low wettability to molten metals. This characteristic allows it to form smoother, higher-quality casting surfaces for iron, high-alloy steel, aluminum and bronze.


Product Application of Zirconium silicate CAS#10101-52-7

Zirconium silicate is widely used in refractory materials, especially for working conditions requiring excellent alkali corrosion resistance. It is also commonly used in ceramics, enamels and glazes as an efficient opacifying agent. It can be used as an additive in special cement formulations and processed into grinding beads for industrial grinding. Zirconium silicate and hafnium silicate thin films can be prepared by CVD, which are promising alternative gate dielectric materials to replace silicon dioxide in the electronics industry. In Europe, zirconium silicate is also applied in cosmetic products such as creams and powders.
