Technical Parameters

Product Features

High purity, small particle size, uniform distribution, large specific surface area, high surface activity, low bulk density, high temperature resistance, oxidation resistance, high strength, high hardness, good thermal conductivity, and good toughness. It is an important high-melting-point, high-strength, and corrosion-resistant high-temperature structural material, with characteristics such as efficient absorption of visible light, reflection of infrared rays, and energy storage.

Potential Application Areas:

1. Application of Nano Zirconium Carbide in Fibers: The content and addition method of zirconium carbide and silicon carbide micropowder affect the near-infrared absorption performance of fibers. When the content of zirconium carbide or silicon carbide in the fiber reaches 4% (by weight), the near-infrared absorption performance of the fiber is optimized. Adding zirconium carbide and silicon carbide to the shell layer of the fiber results in better near-infrared absorption than adding them to the core layer.

2. Application of Nano Zirconium Carbide in New Thermal Insulation and Temperature-Regulating Textiles: Zirconium carbide efficiently absorbs visible light and reflects infrared rays. After absorbing short-wavelength energy below 2μm, which accounts for 95% of sunlight, it converts and stores the energy within the material. It also reflects infrared wavelengths above 2μm. The infrared wavelength emitted by the human body is about 10μm. When wearing textiles containing nano zirconium carbide, human infrared radiation is less likely to dissipate outward. This indicates that zirconium carbide has ideal heat absorption and storage properties, making it suitable for use in new thermal insulation and temperature-regulating textiles.

3. Application of Nano Zirconium Carbide in Hard Alloys, Powder Metallurgy, Abrasives, etc.: Zirconium carbide is an important high-melting-point, high-strength, and corrosion-resistant high-temperature structural material. Its excellent characteristics make it highly applicable in hard alloys, improving strength, corrosion resistance, etc.

4. Nano Zirconium Carbide can be used in coatings as a high-temperature resistant coating to improve the surface properties of materials.

5. Zirconium Carbide as a Modifier for Carbon-Carbon Composite Functional Materials: Used to modify carbon fibers, it significantly enhances the strength, fatigue resistance, wear resistance, and high-temperature resistance of carbon fibers. Modified carbon fibers have been tested and shown to exceed international standards in various indicators. It is widely used in the modification of aerospace carbon fiber materials with very noticeable effects.

Packaging and Storage

This product is typically packaged in inert gas anti-static bags, drums, or vacuum bags. For laboratory quantities, inert gas bottle packaging is available. Customers requiring inert gas bottle packaging should contact us. After receipt, store sealed in a dry, cool environment. Prolonged exposure to air should be avoided to prevent moisture-induced agglomeration, which may affect dispersion performance and usage effectiveness.
