What are the Applications of Zirconium Silicate in Ceramic Industry?
Zirconium Silicate has different kinds of applications in the ceramic industry, including as a whiteness and opacity booster. It is also used as a raw material in ceramic glazes to promote opacity, as well as in glass compounds to make beautiful, opaque white glazes. It improves erosion and chemical resistance when used in glazes.
What are the Uses of Zirconium Silicate in others?
Zirconium Silicate Powder is a high-quality product with a good refractive index of 1.93-2.01. In spite of being used widely in the production of various ceramics, it is also widely used in refractory materials, zirconium ramming materials, casting materials spray coatings and dental crowns.
What are the Side effects?
The rough zirconium silicate affects the skin and eyes. Pneumogranulomas, skin irritation, and skin granulomas can all be caused by long-term exposure to pollution. However, the toxicity rate of zirconium silicate is very low as well as it has no proven side effects
