What exactly is Zirconium Carbide ZrC?
Zirconium caride (ZrC) is a dark grey cubic crystal with metallic sparkle. Crispy. The melting point is 3532 is. The temperature at which the boiling point is reached is 5100. The density is 6.73 g/cm3. The hardness of Mohs is between 8 and 9. Insoluble in hydrochloric acid and cold water. Soluble in hot concentrated sulfuric or nitric acid. It reacts with chlorine at high temperatures to form zirconium tritrichloride. Zirconia results from the combustion of air at 700. ZrC does not react with water.
Zirconium carbide is a type of material with a high melting point with great hardness and outstanding high temperature Refractory. It is an ingredient in the production of solid propellant for rocket motors. It is used in the manufacture of alloy steel. It is also used to create zirconium tetrachloride and zirconium tetrachloride.
What uses Zirconium Carbide ZrC?
You can use niobium carbonide and hafnium-free zirconium cadmium carbide as materials that are fire-resistant for nuclear reactors. Because it has a low cross-section of neutron absorption and a weak sensitivity for radiation-induced damage, it’s suitable to be used as a coating for nuclear fuels like thorium dioxide and uranium dioxide particles. The coating is typically applied by thermal chemicalvapor deposition to the fluidized bed reactor. It has high emissivity, high current capacity at high temperatures, and is therefore a promising material for thermal photosolar radiators as also field emitter tips or arrays.
It is used in abrasives as well as for cutting tools, filaments that glow incandescent, cladding, and cermets.
Is Zirconium carbide ZrC considered a ceramic?
Zirconium carbid is a tough ceramic material that is refractory.
It is extremely resistive to corrosion. This IV interstitial transition metal carbide is also part of ultra-high temperature ceramics or UHTCs. The strong Zr-C bond allows the material to possess a high melting point (3530 degC or less) and high modulus (~ 40GPa) and the hardness (25GPa).
Zirconium Carbide ZrC Melting Point
The melting point of zirconium-carbidide is 3532°C (6390°F).
Zirconium Carbide ZrC Thermal Conductivity.
The thermal conductivity of ZrC is 20.5W/m*K, and the electrical conductivity (resistivity = 43mOcm)
