Additional information on Zirconium Oxide (fused)
There are 2 main types of monoclinic zirconium oxide: one is from a thermal route and the direct fusion of zircon sand; and the other is the chemical precipitation of zirconium chemicals. MONOCLINIC ZIRCONIUM OXIDE FUSED: The dissociation of zirconium oxide and silica can be carried out at high temperatures in an electric arc furnace to produce a fused zirconium oxide. The silica is reduced to the volatile silicon monoxide that reoxidises at the furnace mouth and is recovered in dust collectors as silica fume. The zirconia is reduced to the carbide and can be roasted in air to produce the fused zirconium oxide. Fused zirconium oxide is a lower purity oxide, typically in the range of 98-99% ZrO and is used in refractories, pigments and abrasives. With the reduced availability of baddeleyite, fused zirconium oxide has become the substitute. For many applications of fused zirconia the particle size distribution is very important. ABSCO Materials supplies a range of mesh sizes and finer particles and can supply powders tailored to individual specifications.
