Tsirkooniumoksiid
Tsirkooniumoksiid, also known as zirconia, is a white crystalline oxide of zirconium with the chemical formula ZrO2. It is a highly refractory material, meaning it can withstand very high temperatures without deforming or melting. Zirconia is naturally found in the mineral baddeleyite, but it is most commonly produced synthetically from zircon sand.
The properties of zirconia are highly dependent on its crystalline structure, which can be cubic, tetragonal,
Zirconia exhibits excellent mechanical strength, toughness, and wear resistance, along with good chemical inertness and biocompatibility.
