What is zirconium-nitride (ZnN)? Zirconium Nitride It is a compound that has different crystal structures. The characteristics of this compound allow it to be used in various ways. ZrN is an alloy compound that has been discovered in the ZrN alloy system. Not only do they have excellent chemical characteristics, but they can also be used for junctions, diffusion layers, cryogenic gauges etc. These compounds can be used to make metal-based and three-dimensional integrated transistors, as well as in the fabrication of electric coils. These ZrN compounds have superior wear resistance to pure zirconium, as well as oxidation and corrosion resistance. In addition, they have a much higher superconducting threshold temperature. value.

Zirconium Nitride properties
The resistivity of ZrN at room temperature is 12.0 uO*cm. Its temperature coefficient is 5.6*10-8 *O*cm/K. At 10.4 K the superconducting threshold temperature occurs. The elastic modulus and hardness are 450 GPa. ZrN deposited by PVD is a golden-light color, similar to that of elemental gold.

Zirconium nitride preparation
By carbothermal Nitridation, zirconium nitride nanopowders are prepared from a mixture of zirconium gel and carbon black.
ZrO2(s)+3C(s)-ZrC(s)+2CO(g)
2ZrC(s)+2N2(g)+H2(g)-2ZrN(s)+2HCN(g)

Our zirconium powder is ultrafine, with a large surface area, and high purity. The surface activity of the zirconium powder is high.

Zirconium nitride is used in the manufacture of zirconium alloys. You can also find out more about the different kinds of industries
Zirconium nitride This material is similar to titanium oxide and cement. This material is also used to make refractory materials such as cermet or laboratory crucibles. Physical vapor deposition is often used as a coating method for parts such as medical equipment (especially drill bits), industrial parts (especially automotive and aerospace parts), and other parts which are prone to high wear or corrosive environment. In the case of alloying ZrN with Al, an electronic structure is formed from the local octahedral symmetry. This distorted form becomes more complex and harder as the Al content increased.
The zirconium-nitride coating is used for burs and drills. These coatings can be deposited using physical vapor deposition. Zirconium Nitride-coated tools can be used for nonferrous metal applications. These include machining aluminum alloys such as brass, copper alloys or titanium.
Also, zirconium nitride is used as an inner lining of hydrogen peroxide fuel tank in rockets or airplanes.
