Zirconium(2+) dicarbonate(CAS: 36577-48-7)

Zirconium(2+) dicarbonate is a water-soluble inorganic compound. It has the chemical formula Zr(CO3)(H2O)2 and is used in various applications due to its chemical stability and solubility properties.

Zirconium(2+) dicarbonate is primarily used in pharmaceuticals as a buffering agent, in food additives for pH adjustment, and in research as a precursor for other zirconium compounds. It is also used in dental care products for its compatibility with oral tissues.

Zirconium(2+) dicarbonate is generally considered safe for most applications. However, prolonged exposure to high concentrations may cause skin irritation. Proper handling and protective measures, such as wearing gloves and goggles, should be taken to ensure safety.

Zirconium(2+) dicarbonate should be stored in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place away from direct sunlight and heat sources. It should be kept in a tightly sealed container to prevent moisture and air from affecting its stability. Avoid contact with incompatible materials such as acids and oxidizers.
