What's the Difference between a Diamond and a Zircon?
Zirconiumhas been regarded as a gemstone since ancient times because of its rich and colorful color and plays a decorative role in human life. With the deepening of people's understanding of zirconium, the application of zirconium is more and more extensive. Zirconium may seem strange to most people, but it's already found its way into every aspect of our lives. For example, zirconium can be found in all kinds of buildings, ceramics, knives, decorations and even military and nuclear fields. Zirconium silicate Zirconium is not harmful to human health, and zirconium oxide ceramics and various kinds of jewelry are widely used in daily life. But it was revealed that zirconium in ceramic tiles can cause cancer. Zirconium silicate can make ceramic tile white, and the whiter the more likely to cause cancer, so the expert suggests consumer do not blindly pursue white degree when buying ceramic tile. Zircon and diamond Zircon and diamond look very similar, but their prices are very different, and some illegal merchants use zircon to impersonate diamonds to trick consumers into making huge profits. The colorless and transparent zircon is a good substitute for diamonds after careful sculpture. Zircon has a refractive index of nearly 2 and a similar dispersion to diamonds. As a result, the zircon also appears to glow in color, much like a diamond. Before the advent of artificial diamonds, zircon was the best substitute of diamond. The zircon is now the leader of the mid-to-low range of gemstones, but it is cheaper than diamonds, and it is important for consumers to understand the difference between zircon and diamond. The difference between zircon and diamond The main identification features of zircon include high refractive index, strong luster, high double refractive index, high density, high dispersion and typical spectral characteristics, which lead to a very special optical phenomenon. When the finished zircon is viewed with a magnifying glass, the top surface of the zircon shows a distinct double shadow of the bottom surface and the edges. Because diamonds are "homogeneous" and they never have double shadows, which can distinguish zircon from real diamonds. Diamonds are homogeneous, all black and hard under orthogonal polarizer, while zircon appears four shades under orthogonal polarizer. The diamond has the oil affinity, and the ballpoint pen can leave the mark that does not break in diamond surface easily; zircon is not oil-friendly, and ballpoint pens cannot leave unbroken clarity marks on their surfaces.

What are the uses of Zirconium and Zirconium Alloy?
Zirconium alloyis a nonferrous alloy withzirconiumas the base and other elements added. The main alloy elements aretin,niobium,ironand so on. In 300 ~ 400 ℃ high-temperature and high-pressure water and steam, zirconium alloys have good corrosion resistance, moderate mechanical properties, low thermal neutron absorption cross-section of atoms, as well as good compatibility to the nuclear fuel, therefore, it is often used as core structure material for water cooled nuclear reactors. Besides that, zirconium has excellent corrosion resistance to various acids, bases and salts, and has strong affinity with oxygen, nitrogen and other gases, so zirconium alloys are also used to make corrosion-resistant parts and pharmaceutical machinery parts, and are widely used as non-evapotranspiration degassing agents in electric vacuum and light bulb industries. Zirconium has small thermal neutron capture cross section and outstanding nuclear performance. It is an indispensable material for the development of atomic energy industry and can be used as reactor core structure material. Zirconium powder burns easily in air and can be used as detonator and smokeless powder; zirconium can be used as an additive to deoxidize and desulfurize high quality steel, and is also a component of armored steel, artillery steel, stainless steel and heat resistant steel; zirconium is an important alloy element of magnesium alloy, which can improve tensile strength and processing performance of magnesium alloy. Zirconium dioxide and zirconium quartz are the most valuable compounds in refractories. Zirconium dioxide is the main material of the new type of ceramics and cannot be used as a heating material against high temperature oxidation. Zirconium dioxide can be used as an additive in acid resistant enamel and glass, which can improve the elasticity, chemical stability and heat resistance of glass. Zirconium quartz can be used as a shader in ceramics and glass because of its strong reflectance and thermal stability. Zirconium can absorb a lot of oxygen, hydrogen, ammonia and other gases when heated. It is an ideal getter, for example, zirconium powder can be used as degassing agent in electron tube, and zirconium sheet can be used as grid support and anode support.

What is a Supercapacitor?
Supercapacitors used to be used mainly for high-power power power and large industrial and consumer power equipment are now found in products of all sizes, especially portable devices, which are known for their thousands of farad capacitance values and fast charging and discharging rates. Because of its ability to store large amounts of electricity over long periods of time, supercapacitors behave more like batteries than standard capacitors. In fact, they will replace rechargeable batteries in many products as technology advances, such as computers, digital cameras, mobile phones and other hand-held devices. In short, a supercapacitor is a very large polarizing electrolyte capacitor, and the "Large" here refers to the capacity rather than their physical size. Indeed, the larger the capacitance and/or voltage, the larger the overall package, for a normal electrolytic capacitor. Lectrolytic capacitors usually provide capacitors of the order of magnitude of microfarad, ranging from about 0.1uF to about 1F, with voltage nominal values up to 1kVdc. In general, the higher the rated voltage, the lower the capacitance, while the higher the capacitance, the greater the encapsulation, and the lower the working voltage. These rules also apply essentially to supercapacitors. The capacity of the supercapacitor is over 1F, and the operating voltage ranges from 1.5v to 160V are even higher. As the capacitance value and voltage increase, its volume will also increase. In principle, one can think of a supercapacitor as a rechargeable battery. It can store charge proportional to its capacity and release charge when required to discharge. The biggest difference between supercapacitors and electrolytic capacitors is their two-layer electronic architecture, which can achieve higher capacity. The standard capacitance consists of a dielectric layer sandwiched between two electrodes attached to a metal plate. Depending on the type of capacitance, the dielectric can bealuminum oxide, tantalum tetraoxide, bariumtitanium oxideor polypropylene polyester. Different materials determine different capacity and voltage characteristics, and the amount of the dielectric and the distance between the plate will also affect the electrical capacity. However, the maximum allowable distance between plates limits the amount of dielectric. In this single-layer structure, it is usually feasible to increase the number of dielectric to increase the capacity. There are three methods, which are increasing the package width and plate size, increasing the package length and increasing the plate distance or the combination of the two methods. All three methods will result in larger capacitors, which is a sacrifice to increase capacitance. Please visithttp://www.samaterials.comfor more information. ...read more
