What is zirconium nitride?

Zirconium nitride (ZrN) is an refractory compound, golden yellow, high decomposition temperature, good chemical stability, has a very good high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, used in atomic energy industry reactor protective layer alloy material, aerospace rocket jet high-temperature material and petrochemical reducing chloride container corrosion resistant material. Nitride zirconium (Zr - N) compounds as the change of composition and a variety of crystal structure, such as: in Zr - N alloy system, has found a ZrN, o - Zr3N4, c - Zr3N4. They not only have excellent chemical properties, not only can be used in junction, diffuse layer, low thermometer, etc., but also can be used in 3D integrated electric coil, metal based transistor.At the same time, these ZR-N compounds are superior to pure zirconium in wear resistance, oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance, etc., and have a high superconducting critical temperature, so they may become a very good superconductor, with high use value.

Applications of zirconium nitride

Based on the high melting point of zirconium nitride, chemical stability, corrosion resistance, good wear resistance, it is often used in the production of nanocomposite hard tools, hard alloy, high temperature ceramic conductive materials, thermal wear resistant materials, dispersion strengthened materials.Mainly used in hardware, building materials, sanitary ware and other daily work areas.


Development prospect of zirconium nitride

Zirconium nitride is an inert matrix material for nuclear fuel with high melting point, high hardness, good chemical stability, low neutron capture cross section and high thermal conductivity.
