Application

  • New metallo-organic complex of zirconium (IV): A precursor for nano structured ZrO2 (VG Prasanth et al., 2015).
  • Zirconium (IV) acetylacetonate as a ring-opening initiator: Mediating one-step synthesis of biodegradable polyacids (P Dobrzyński et al., 2019).
  • Decomposition insights using synchrotron radiation: Formation of volatile Zr-intermediates (S Grimm et al., 2022).
  • High-performance polymer solar cells: Employing zirconium acetylacetonate film as cathode buffer layer (Z Tan et al., 2014).
  • Preparation of zirconia nanofibers: Using electrospinning and calcination with zirconium acetylacetonate as precursor (VV Rodaev et al., 2019).
