The main component of zirconium silicate powder is ZrSiO4, which is the silicate of zirconium.
Zirconium silicate is an important inorganic non-metallic material with the chemical formula ZrSiO4, which belongs to the tetragonal crystal system and is a silicate mineral with an island structure. Zirconium silicate is widely used in refractory materials and zirconium-based pigments due to its high melting point, low thermal conductivity, low coefficient of expansion, excellent chemical and phase stability, etc. In addition, sintered zirconium silicate has excellent thermal shock resistance, making it an important candidate for high-temperature structural ceramics. Zirconium silicate micron-level coatings are used for surface protection of metal materials in corrosive environments due to their good chemical stability, resistance to acids, alkalis and organic solvents, high mechanical strength, strong anti-microbial ability, and high temperature resistance. These properties make zirconium silicate play an important role in several fields .
