with the formula Zr S2. It is a violet-brown solid. It adopts a layered structure similar to that of cadmium iodide. Like the closely related titanium disulfide, ZrS2 is prepared by heating sulfur and zirconium metal. It can be purified by
vapor transport In chemistry, a chemical transport reaction describes a process for purification and crystallization of non- volatile solids. The process is also responsible for certain aspects of mineral growth from the effluent of volcanoes. The technique ...
