Zirconium nitrate by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries is a high grade reagent. This inorganic compound is a nitrate of zirconium. The reagent is available as a crystalline white powder which is soluble in water and ethanol. It decomposes at 100 C. Zirconium nitrate can be generated by reacting zirconium tetrachloride with dinitrogen pentoxide. While this compound is stable under general conditions, it is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents and must be stored carefully. CAS No.: 14985-18-3 Quantity Provided: 500 gm per bottle Molecular formula: ZrO(NO3)2.H2O Molecular weight: 231.23 Assay: minimum 99 % Zirconium nitrate has a variety of applications in chemical and biological sectors. It finds applications in the organic synthesis of various derivative compounds. Zirconium nitrate is used as an analytical standard as well as a preservative. It can also be used as a precursor along with nitronium pentanitratozirconate, to produce zirconia. This reagent is suitable for industrial synthesis of products and research applications.
