Abstract
Advanced zirconium compounds show superior properties such as high refractory characteristics, abrasion resistance, corrosion resistance, fracture toughness and hardness. These products are useful candidates specifically for high temperature applications. The production is a challenge because of high temperature and/or pressure requirements to give enough densification for applications while most of them depends on different compositions. For example, ZrB2 known for its high refractory properties like good thermal shock resistance, chemical stability to liquid metals, high oxidation resistance and high melting point but requires sintering aid to lower porosity. ZrC has high abrasion resistance and similar thermal properties like ZrB2, but its low resistance to oxidation prevents some features
