Zirconium Boride, Powder, 99.5%, -325 mesh (12 mic aps)

Zirconium boride is used as a sputtering target material to create hard, wear-resistant, and thermally stable thin films for cutting tools and microelectronic components.

Due to its extremely high melting point and chemical stability, ZrB2 is utilized in the production of high-performance refractory ceramics and crucibles for molten metal handling.

ZrB2 is a primary component in ultra-high temperature ceramics (UHTCs) used for aerospace applications such as hypersonic flight vehicle leading edges and rocket engine nozzles.

Zirconium boride powders are applied via thermal spray processes to provide surfaces with superior oxidation resistance and protection against extreme thermal environments.

Used as a source material in physical vapor deposition processes to deposit protective coatings that require high hardness and high-temperature durability.
