Chemical Synthesis & Metal Production

Zirconium and hafnium chlorides are intermediates for downstream chemical conversion, refining and metal-production processes.

Chemical production process equipment

Typical Uses

  • Zirconium and hafnium metal production via suitable reduction processes
  • Synthesis of downstream zirconium and hafnium compounds

Material Forms & Processing

zirconium tetrachloride and hafnium tetrachloride are chloride feedstocks. Industrial users carry out controlled conversion, purification or reduction to produce the intended downstream material.

Material Selection Notes

Select the chloride grade for the process and impurity limits. Moisture-sensitive handling, packaging and safety requirements must be reviewed with the applicable SDS.
