Zircon Sand

Zircon sand finds applications to be used in ceramics, refractory, foundry, electronics, zirconium compound, and other fields, it is also used in the preparation of nuclear reactor structural materials and control rod with zirconium and hafnium as irreplaceable raw minerals making it a strategic mineral. It is used in ceramics as a major end-user, zircon sand is used as a glaze emulsion is ceramics such as glazed floor tiles, wall tiles, sanitary ware, and tableware. Properties of Zircon Sand Zircon is crystal and shows the structure of the quarter column. It usually occurs with ilmenite rutile, sillimanite, etc. in beach sand and is refined by water, electricity, and magnetic beneficiation process. Pure zircon is a colorless and translucent crystal. It appears yellow, orange, red, and brown with different origins. Its hardness is 7.8, specific gravity 4.6-4.71, refractive index 1.93-2.01, and the melting point of 2550 C.

For example, zircon sand from Australia generally has a higher percentage of zirconium oxide than zircon sand from India. The composition of the zircon sand is crucial because it determines the characteristics of the zircon that can be formed from the metal. For example, zirconium copper with a high percentage of zirconium oxide will produce zircon with a high melting point and high corrosion resistance. The composition of the zircon sand is also essential in determining the extraction method of zircon from the ore for example, hafnium oxide-rich zircon copper is mined using hydrofluoric acid leaching. In general, the composition of zircon sand is an essential factor that affects the characteristics of zircon that can be produced from the ore and the methods that can be used to extract zircon from the ore. Zircon ore composition varies slightly based on the source and what region of Nigeria it is collected. We encourage buyers to ask for a free sample for their composition analysis and evaluation of ready-to-ship material. Samples are free, but buyers should arrange to pick up a free piece with a courier service.

INTRODUCTION: Zircon sand, also known as zircon, is a mineral composed mainly of zirconium silicate (ZrSiO4). Pure zircon sand is a colorless transparent crystal. FORM OF ZIRCON ZIRCON SAND ZIRCON POWDER APPLICATION: To be used in Ceramics. Opacity, whiteness, wear resistance and moisture resistance make it a key component of ceramic tiles, sanitary ware and tableware. To be used in refractory industry to protect the interior of high-temperature furnaces To be used in foundries and precision casting processes for the casting of metals and alloys into various products due to the thermal stability, high melting point and abrasion resistance provided by zircon. Another important application is the production of a broad range of zirconia chemicals, which in turn, have a diverse range of end uses including ceramics, refractory, catalysts, coating electronics and biomedical related products. Some zircon is used as an x-ray filter and as a polishing agent in the production of silicon wafers for the manufacture of semiconductor components such as integrated circuits (computer chips).

Zircon sand is generally found in land of ancient coastlines,some of which can be found very far inland,where the heavier mineral sands formed hardened deposits.These deposits are typically mined via dry or wet(dredge)mining techniques.

Zircon sand is a tetragonal system with a square pyramidal shape with a specific gravity of 4.6~4.71, a uniform Mohs hardness of 7-8, a refractive index of 1.93-2.01, and a melting point fluctuating within 2190~2420 °C depending on the impurities contained. It is a tetragonal system, often in the form of a well-developed cone-shaped small square cylinder, which is also irregularly granular. Sexually brittle, fractured shell-like. It is a high quality refractory material. It is symbiotic with ilmenite, rutile, monazite and xenotime in coastal sand, and is obtained after sorting by water separation, electric selection and magnetic separation.
