Tecnodieci Zirconium Silicate, Zirconium in the ceramic industry, especially in the glaze formulation, provides the whitening of the recipe in which it is put and increases the physical resistance. Therefore, it is widely used by all ceramic manufacturers. Two commercial products are sold in the market as glaze (45 micron) and frit (75 mic.). As its size decreases, it also seeks whiteness. As raw material, it is found in Australia, New Zealand and South Africa as sand. It is transported to different parts of the world by ships from here, and it is ground micronized in ball mills and sold. Zirconium silicate has replaced tin oxide. Besides ceramics, zirconia is used in many sectors such as whitening, plastic, paper, and food. Since there is no zircon sand in our country, all of the consumption is imported from Far East, European and American countries. r. The use of the average ceramic industry is around 60-70 thousand tons per year. This is about 110-120 million Euros with its current price (1600 Euro/ton), which is a serious import item.
