China and India are the leading exporters of zirconyl chloride octahydrate (CAS 13520-92-8), accounting for the majority of global shipments, while the United States, Germany, and South Korea are the largest importers. Zirconyl chloride octahydrate prices have remained relatively stable amid consistent demand from catalyst and ceramic industries. Export volumes from China have grown modestly over the past two years, while Indian exports have plateaued, and U.S. imports have increased slightly—reflecting sustained industrial uptake without major supply-side disruption.
Zirconyl chloride octahydrate (ZrOCl₂·8H₂O) is a white to off-white crystalline solid, typically odorless and non-volatile, with high water solubility and hygroscopic character. It is an inorganic zirconium-based compound classified as a metal salt and hydrolysis-sensitive zirconium precursor. Primarily used as a key intermediate in zirconium chemistry, it serves in the production of zirconium dioxide (zirconia), catalysts, and specialty ceramics. Its main application areas include catalyst manufacturing (e.g., for polymerization and petrochemical processes), refractory materials, surface treatment agents, and as a mordant or stabilizer in textile and coating formulations.
To prepare high quality pigment toners, in deodorants, antiperspirants, cosmetics and textile.
