Zirconium Oxide Market Higher Mortality Rates by 2026

Zirconium Oxide Market Study Analysis

Zirconium oxide, also referred to as zirconia (ZrO2), is a white, crystalline zirconium oxide that is primarily utilised in the manufacture of high-tech ceramics. In addition to having a very high mechanical strength and resistance to wear, zirconium oxide exhibits good chemical and corrosion inertness at very high temperatures. It is used as a significant refractory material as a result of these physical, chemical, and mechanical properties. Additionally, it is used to make abrasives, enamels, and insulation.

Zirconium oxide is extremely beneficial for the production of electro-ceramics and electrochromic devices because it has strong ionic conductivity and low electronic conductivity. Because of its biocompatibility, strength, and beauty, zirconium oxide is widely used as a dental ceramic for crowning teeth. The global zirconium oxide market is anticipated to grow rapidly between 2016 and 2026 as a result of its numerous applications in a variety of end-use industries, particularly the ceramic industry.

Market Dynamics

Over the last couple of years, the global ceramic industry has seen a significant change in terms of product offerings; aestheticism along with good strength has become an important factor affecting customers’ buying behavior. Zirconium oxide provide excellent properties of strength, wear resistance and hardness in ceramic materials.

Due to high chemical inertness of zirconium oxide, the ceramics can withstand attack from various acids, bases and organic solvents, which makes it an ideal choice for the manufacture of different kind of ceramics such as advanced technical ceramics, decorative ceramics, conductive ceramics etc. Besides, zirconium oxide is increasingly being utilized for its newer applications such as in high performance knives, scissors and other various industrial applications.

Cubic zirconium oxide possess very good optical properties due to which it is also used as a diamond simulant in jewelries. With a vast and growing application portfolio, the global zirconium oxide market is expected to expand at a high CAGR over the forecast period.

Zirconium oxide exists in three different crystal phases at different temperatures. During the crystal phase change at varied temperatures, it loses some of its mechanical properties.

The crystal structure of zirconium oxide is stabilized by introducing some effective dopants such as magnesium oxide, yttrium oxide etc. in order to sustain its high strength and other mechanical properties. Proper doping, along with maintaining continuous supply of raw materials, is one of the significant challenges faced by the market players in the global zirconium oxide market.

Market Segmentation
