ZIRCON SAND GRADE A

Zircon, also known as zircon silicate (ZrSiO4), is found in ancient mineral sand deposits. In the form of crystal sandszircon is typically brown, but could also vary from colourless to yellow-golden, pink and red to blue and green.

Description

ZIRCON SAND GRADE A

Zircon Sand Grade A (ZrSiO4). It is a naturally occurring mineral, used in many strategic industries.

Iron and Steel – Used with chemical binders for high quality steel castings and for critical iron castings. It is also used in core and mould washes to improve surface finish.

Ceramics – Used as opacifier in glazes and frits to enhance resistance of the finished product against water, chemicals and abrasion and as a whitener in porcelain tiles.

Refractories – Used for its high thermal stability and non-wetability against molten metals. Products include bricks used to line steel making furnaces and casting channels for refined steel continuous castings. Zircon Sand Supplier.

Advantages of Using Zircon Sand:

  • Resists metal penetration and reaction with most alloys
  • Does not react with iron oxide = prevent sand burn on defects
  • Low thermal expansion = expansion defects are eliminated
  • Higher refractoriness than Silica
  • Low acid demand value = can be used with all chemical binder systems
  • Low binder requirement, Zircon Sand Wholesale Supplier
  • Reduced cleaning and machining
  • High specific gravity and high thermal conductivity = castings cool faster than silica sand

This and its other properties are used in many industries:

  • ceramic tiles
  • refractory
  • foundry
  • nuclear

A rapidly growing sector for the use of zircon is the production of zirconium-based chemicals in the nuclear industry.
