The chemical formula of zirconium hydride is ZrH2, the density is 5.6g/cm3, it decomposes before melting, and the heat of generation is -39.7kcal/mol. Its preparation method is the same as that of titanium hydride, and the temperature of the hydrogenation reaction is often carried out at 900 °C. It is a stable powder, stable to air and water under normal conditions.
It reacts violently with oxidants and strong acids, it burns smoothly when ignited, begins to decompose at 300°C in a vacuum, and completely decomposes at 500-700°C.
Zirconium hydride is used in industry for fireworks, fluxes and igniters, as moderators in nuclear reactors, as getters in vacuum tubes, and in metal-ceramic seals.
Titanium hydride and zirconium hydride are industrially produced and supplied by the ton, but mainly for military use.
