Zirconium carbonide (ZrC), a refractory ceramic that has a high hardness, is used commercially to make tooltips. This is done by sintering. Particle Size: -325mesh
Purity: 99%

Description of Zirconium Carbide Powder:

Zirconium carbide ZrC is used commercially to cut tooltips. It is often sintered. Zirconium carbide is hard. The zirconium carbide melting point is 3504degC. Zirconium carbide Point boiling Temperature is 5100degC. The apparent density of the material is 6.70 g/cm3. Mohs hardness ranges from 8-9. It is insoluble in cold water and hydrochloric acids. It dissolves in hydrofluoric and hot concentrated sulfuric, containing either nitric acid (or hydrogen peroxide). At high temperatures, it reacts with chlorine to make zirconium trichloride. It burns at 700 degrees Celsius in the air and produces zirconia. It would help if you did not mix it with water.

ZrC powder is a powder of gray metal with cubic crystal structures. High resistance to corrosion. These interstitial transition metal carides of group IV are members of the ultra-high temperatures ceramics (UHTC). ZrC's thermal conductivity is 20.5 W/m*K, and its electrical conductivity is resistivity at 43mO*cm. These properties are very similar to zirconium. Due to the strong ZrC covalent bond, ZrC has a very high melting temperature (3530degC), high module (440 GPa), as well as a low hardness (25 GPa). ZrC's density is 6.73g/cm3 lower than that of other carbides, such as TaC (14.75 g/cm3) and HfC (12.67g/cm3). ZrC appears to be suitable in reentry, rocket/hyperjet, and supersonic aircraft where high density is a critical requirement.

As with most carbides from refractory materials, zirconium carbonide is substoichiometric. It contains carbon vacancies. If the content of carbon exceeds ZrC0.98, it is considered free of carbon. Between 0.65 and 0.98, the ZrC-to-carbon ratio to metal is stable.

Production Method of Zirconium Carbide ZrC Powder ：

Direct carbonization method: zirconium powder and carbon black are mixed in a certain proportion, heated to high temperature in inert gas or vacuum, and direct carbonization is performed. The key to this method is to control temperature and time to obtain zirconium carbide with excellent properties. At the same time, in order to obtain high-purity zirconium carbide, it is necessary to carry out subsequent purification and impurity removal treatment.

Hydrogen carbide method: Zirconium powder is heated to high temperature with hydrogen and carbon black so that zirconium reacts with hydrogen and carbon. This method can obtain high-purity zirconium carbide but requires the use of high-purity hydrogen, so the cost is higher. At the same time, in order to prevent hydrogen explosion, it is necessary to strictly control the reaction conditions and operating procedures.

Chlorination reduction method: zirconium chloride is reacted with carbon at high temperatures to produce zirconium carbide and chlorine gas. This method can obtain high-purity zirconium carbide but requires the use of chlorination agents and reducing agents, so the cost is high. At the same time, in order to prevent chlorine gas leakage and air pollution, corresponding safety measures need to be taken.

Electrolysis: The zirconium salt solution is electrolyzed to produce zirconium carbide and hydrogen or oxygen. This method can obtain high-purity zirconium carbide but requires the use of electrolytic equipment, so the cost is higher. At the same time, in order to improve the electrolytic efficiency and product quality, it is necessary to carry out reasonable electrolytic process design and operation control.
