General
Information
-
Zirconium silicate, also
zirconium orthosilicate, (ZrSiO4) is a chemical compound, a silicate
of zirconium.
-
Zirconium silicate is
usually colorless, but impurities induce various colorations.
-
Zircon is a mineral
belonging to the group of nesosilicates. Its chemical name is
zirconium silicate and its corresponding chemical formula is ZrSiO4.
-
Zircon is a transparent,
translucent, or opaque mineral, composed chiefly of zirconium
silicate, ZrSiO4, and crystallizes in the tetragonal system.
-
Zirconium silicate occurs
in nature as mineral zircon.
Uses
-
Zirconium silicate is
used for manufacturing refractory materials for applications
where resistance to corrosion by alkali materials is required.
-
Thin films of zirconium
silicate and hafnium silicate produced by chemical vapor
deposition, most often MOCVD, can be used as a high-k dielectric
as a replacement for silicon dioxide in semiconductors.
-
Zirconium Silicate is
also used in production of some ceramics, enamels, and ceramic
glazes.
-
Zircon is recovered from
heavy mineral sands and is used largely for its thermal
properties in the fields of ceramics refractories and foundry
uses.
Report
-
At present,
Australia, South Africa, United States, Ukraine, India,
China, Brazil and Sri Lanka are the largest exporters of
zirconium minerals, in 1992 they supplied about 99% of the
world production.
-
In Italy, zirconium
minerals are widely used and most of the national demand,
currently estimated at around 60}65 ktons, goes into the
ceramics market.
-
The zirconium
minerals are used in the Italian ceramic industry for the
production of ceramic colours, glazes, tiles and sanitary
and table ware.
-
Zirconium Silicate
is reported by Kleber and Putt (1986) as being used in
chewing gum and in a dental prophylaxis paste.
-
Australia is the
world’s largest producer of zircon (zirconium
silicate—ZrSiO4), chiefly in the form of heavy mineral
sands.
