Product Description:
Zirconium sulphate usually presents as a white, crystalline solid. This compound exhibits high chemical stability under normal conditions but may react with strong bases or reducing agents. In the ceramic industry, it is widely used. It can enhance the mechanical strength, hardness, and thermal shock resistance of ceramic products. Adding zirconium sulphate to ceramic formulations helps in improving the glaze quality, making it more smooth and lustrous. In the leather - tanning industry, zirconium sulphate is used as a tanning agent. It can cross - link with the collagen in leather, enhancing its durability and resistance to decay. In the chemical industry, it serves as an important raw material for synthesizing various zirconium - based compounds. These compounds have applications in catalysts, refractories, and electronic materials. In the textile industry, zirconium sulphate can be used as a mordant to improve the color fastness of dyes on fabrics. However, when handling zirconium sulphate, appropriate precautions are necessary. Avoid inhalation of its dust, as it may cause respiratory discomfort. Prolonged skin contact should also be avoided as it might lead to skin irritation. It should be stored in a dry, well - ventilated area, away from substances that can react with it, such as strong alkalis and reducing agents, to ensure its stability and safe storage.

 

Application: 

Zirconium sulphate has diverse applications. In ceramics, it strengthens products, improves glaze quality. In leather - tanning, it cross - links collagen, enhancing durability. In the chemical industry, it's a raw material for making zirconium - based compounds used in catalysts, refractories, etc. In textiles, it functions as a mordant, improving dye color fastness. When handling, avoid inhaling its dust and long - term skin contact. Store it dry and away from reactive substances like strong alkalis and reducing agents.
