6. Other Information
- 6.0 Usage
- Zirconium silicate is used for manufacturing refractory materials for applications where resistance to corrosion by alkali materials is required. It is also used in production of some ceramics, enamels, and ceramic glazes. In enamels and glazes it serves as an opacifier. It can be also present in some cements. Another use of zirconium silicate is as beads for milling and grinding. Thin films of zirconium silicate and hafnium silicate produced by chemical vapor deposition. Potential alternative gate dielectric to silica.

- 6.3 Production
- Zirconium silicate occurs in nature as mineral zircon. Ore is mined from natural deposits and concentrated by various techniques (See Zirconium, Recovery). It is separated from sand by electrostatic and electromagnetic methods.
Also, the compound can be made by fusion of SiO2 and ZrO2 in an arc furnace, or by reacting a zirconium salt with sodium silicate in aqueous solution.
- 6.4 Chemical Properties
- grey powder
- 6.5 Uses
- In refractories, ceramics, glazes, cements, coatings for casting molds, polishing materials, gem stones, catalyst in alkyl and alkenyl hydrocarbon manufacture, in fritted glass filters, as stabilizer in silicone rubbers. In Europe in cosmetic creams and powders.
