Physical properties
Zirconium nitrate is a white crystalline substance, prone to hygroscopicity. It decomposes upon heating to 100°C, yielding zirconium oxy nitrate and nitric acid. It is readily soluble in water, producing an acidic solution, and soluble in alcohols. Treating freshly prepared zirconium dioxide hydrate with nitric acid yields the coordination compound zirconium nitrate. It is prepared by the reaction of zirconium hydroxide with nitric acid.
Applications
Zirconium nitrate can be used as a reagent for determining fluorides, as a corrosion inhibitor, and also for the separation of phosphates. Additionally, it serves as an important catalyst in organic chemical processes.
