Hafnium oxide Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Physical Properties
White crystalline solid, when heated at 1,500°C, it transforms into a tetragonal modification with shrinkage; tetragonal form converts to a cubic polymorph with fluorite structure when heated at 2,700°C; density 9.68 g/cm3; melts at 2,774°C; insoluble in water; dissolves slowly in hydrofluoric acid at ordinary temperatures.
Uses
Hafnium dioxide is a high temperature refractory material. It is used for control rods in nuclear reactors. It has high stability and high thermal neutron absorption values. It also is used in special optical glasses and glazes.
Preparation
Hafnium dioxide may be prepared by heating the metal with air or oxygen at elevated temperatures (above 400°C). Also, the oxide can be obtained by igniting hafnium salts, such as hydroxide, oxalate, sulfate, nitride, carbide, boride or tetrachloride in air. Hafnium carbide converts to dioxide when heated with oxygen at 500°C. The commercial products generally contain about 95-97% hafnium dioxide mixed with small amount of zirconium oxide. The compound can be prepared at 99.9% purity.
Reactions
Hafnium dioxide reacts with chlorine in the presence of carbon at elevated temperatures to yield hafnium tetrachloride, HfCl4. When ammonium hydroxide solution is added to an acid solution of hafnium dioxide, the hydrous oxide, HfO2•xH2O precipitates.
When heated with concentrated sulfuric acid, the product is hafnium sulfate, Hf(SO4)2.
Reaction with carbon at 1,500°C produces hafnium carbide, HfC.
Reaction with sodium fluorosilicate, Na2SiF6 at elevated temperatures yields sodium fluorohafnate, Na2HfF6.
Description
Hafnium is a shiny, silvery, ductile metal and resistant to corrosion. The physical properties of hafnium metal samples are markedly affected by zirconium impurities, especially the nuclear properties, as these two elements are among the most difficult to separate because of their chemical similarity. Hafnia is used in optical coatings and as a high-k dielectric in dynamic randomaccess memory (DRAM) capacitors. Hafnium (IV) oxide is a colourless, inert solid and has been reported as one of the most common and stable compounds of hafnium. It is an electrical insulator. Hafnium dioxide is an intermediate in some processes that give hafnium metal. It reacts with strong acids and strong bases. It dissolves slowly in hydrofluoric acid. At high temperatures, it reacts with chlorine in the presence of graphite or carbon tetrachloride and forms the hafnium tetrachloride. Hafnium-based oxides are currently important materials to replace silicon oxide as a gate insulator because of its high dielectric constant. Hafnium (Hf) is found in association with zirconium ores, production based on zircon (ZrSiO4) concentrates which contain 0.5%–2% hafnium. Hafnium has extensive applications in industries especially because of its resistance to corrosion. Different compounds of hafnium used in ceramics industry are hafnium boride, hafnium carbide, hafnium nitride, hafnium oxide, hafnium silicate, and hafnium titanate. Hafnium-based oxides are currently leading candidates to replace silicon oxide as a gate insulator in fieldeffect transistors.
Chemical Properties
Hafnium oxide is a white cubic crystal, insoluble in water, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid and other common inorganic acids, and slowly dissolves in hydrofluoric acid to form fluorohafnate. It reacts with hot concentrated sulfuric acid or bisulfate to produce hafnium sulfate. Mix and heat with carbon in the presence of chlorine to obtain hafnium tetrachloride. It reacts with potassium fluorosilicate to produce potassium fluorohafnate.
Physical properties
Hafnium oxide (HfO2) is a white crystalline powder. Pure hafnium oxide exists in three forms, one in the amorphous state and the other two in the crystalline state. When unstable compounds such as hafnium hydroxide and hafnium oxychloride are calcined at <400°C, amorphous hafnium oxide can be obtained. Continue to heat the hafnium oxide to 450-480°C, and start to transform into monoclinic crystals, and continue to heat to 1000-1650°C to gradually increase the lattice constant, and transform into a monomer of 4 hafnium oxide molecules. At 1700~1865℃, it starts to transform into tetragonal crystal system. Hafnium is a refractory metal which occurs in nature in zirconium minerals.
Uses
Hafnium(IV) oxide is used as Intermediates, Paint additives and coating additives, metal Products. And it is also used in optical coatings, as a refractory material in the insulation of such devices as thermocouples.
Flammability and Explosibility
Non flammable
Potential Exposure
Hafnium metal has been used as a control rod material in nuclear reactors. Thus, those engaged in fabrication and machining of such rods may be exposed.
