Description

Zirconyl chloride octahydrate is a chemical compound that can be used in the synthesis of polysaccharides. It reacts with trifluoroacetic acid to form oxychloride and zirconium oxychloride, which are insoluble in water. The reaction mechanism is thought to involve the formation of hydroxyl ions at the surface of the reactants, leading to a polymerization reaction. Zirconyl chloride octahydrate has been shown to have a high thermal expansion coefficient and low thermal conductivity, making it an attractive material for use in constructing highly insulated buildings or for making lightweight components for vehicles and aircrafts.

Zirconyl chloride octahydrate can also be used as an additive in plastics, paints, and other applications where heat resistance is needed. This compound has been shown to react with coumarin derivatives at room temperature, which has led to its use in surface methodology research as a marker for protein identification.
