Zirconium acetate

(1) Available as aqueous solution, 22% ZrO2. Clear to pale-amber liquid. D 1.46, pH 3.8– 4.2 (20C), fp ?7C, stable at room temperature. (2) Available as 13% ZrO2 (aqueous solution). D 1.20 (approx.), pH 3.3–4.0 (20C), stable at room temperature but temperature of hydrolysis decreases with pH; undergoes exchange with anion-exchange resins but not with cation exchangers.

Zirconium acetate solution is a metallic salt solution that can be used for a variety of applications such as:

• a zirconium based precursor for the development of zirconia coatings
• a stabilizer for colloidal solutions, controlled growth of ice crystals, water proofing, and flame retardant treatments

Preparation of water repellents, other chemicals.
