Application

Zirconium(IV) propoxide solution is a metal alkoxide solution that is highly reactive with water. It can be used as a precursor material for the synthesis of zirconium oxide thin films by atmospheric pressure electrospray. Zirconium(IV) propoxide can also be used in the preparation of stable sols for potential usage in optical, electronic and magnetic applications.
