Chemical compound

Zirconium nitride (Template:ZirconiumTemplate:Nitrogen) is an inorganic compound found in a variety of uses.

Properties

ZrN applied by the physical vapor deposition coating process is a light gold color similar to elemental gold.

ZrN superconducts below 10 K (−263.1 °C; −441.7 °F) .

Uses

Zirconium nitride is a hard ceramic material similar to titanium nitride and is a cement like refractory material.Thus it is used in refractories, cermets and laboratory crucibles. When applied using the physical vapor deposition coating process it is commonly used for coating medical devices, industrial parts (notably drill bits), automotive and aerospace components and other parts subject to high wear and corrosive environments.
