Description

Zirconium(IV) Isopropoxide Isopropanol is a metal-organic compound that serves as a versatile precursor in advanced materials synthesis. This product is valued for its high reactivity and ability to form uniform zirconium-containing films and coatings. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers and R&D departments in the electronics, ceramics, and specialty catalyst industries seeking precise control over material properties.

Application

• Sol-Gel Processing: A key precursor for the synthesis of zirconia (ZrO₂) nanoparticles, thin films, and monolithic gels for optical, electronic, and protective coatings.
• Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) & Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD): Used as a volatile source of zirconium for depositing high-purity zirconium oxide films on semiconductors, sensors, and barrier layers.
• Catalyst Synthesis: Acts as a catalyst or catalyst support precursor in organic synthesis and polymerization reactions due to its Lewis acidic nature.
• Advanced Ceramics: Employed in the production of high-performance zirconia ceramics for structural, biomedical (e.g., dental implants), and refractory applications.
• Surface Modification: Used to functionalize material surfaces with zirconium alkoxide groups to alter wettability, adhesion, or corrosion resistance.
• Crosslinking Agent: Can serve as a crosslinker for polymers, enhancing thermal stability and mechanical properties.

Quality Control

Our Zirconium(IV) Isopropoxide Isopropanol is manufactured under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high purity. Each lot undergoes rigorous quality testing, including assay and impurity profile analysis, to meet the stringent requirements of advanced materials applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic and moisture-sensitive nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) to prevent hydrolysis and degradation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
