Zircon Sand: An Important Raw Material | SpringerLink
Above all, zircon sand serves as a raw material for the production of powdered zirconium oxide (Sect. 12.1 in Chap. 12 ), a very important ceramic material today. Only a fairly small proportion of the world's zircon is used to produce metallic zirconium (Sect. 6.2 in Chap. 6 ). Nevertheless, this use of zircon sand plays an …
