Zirconium Carbide, Rod, 99.5%, 0.1875 inch dia x 6 inch length

Zirconium carbide is used as a sputtering target material to create hard, wear-resistant, and thermally stable thin-film coatings on tools and mechanical components.

Due to its extremely high melting point and hardness, ZrC is utilized as a refractory material in rocket nozzles and high-temperature furnace linings.

ZrC is employed in ultra-high temperature ceramic (UHTC) applications where structural integrity must be maintained above 2000 °C.

ZrC powder is used in thermal spray processes to provide protective coatings that resist erosion and thermal shock in aerospace environments.

It is used as an evaporation source in physical vapor deposition processes to produce hard coatings and decorative finishes.
