What's the difference between zirconia and zirconic?
Zirconia
Definition:
(n.) The oxide of zirconium, obtained as a white powder, and possessing both acid and basic properties. On account of its infusibility, and brilliant luminosity when incandescent, it is used as an ingredient of sticks for the Drummomd light.

(16) Results suggest the zirconia used is a superior ceramic coating to the alumina.
(17) Further heating changed surface structure and led to zircon production in the zirconia fibres.
(18) Extensive microcracking occurred around refractory particles and through matrix in experimental zirconia which is likely to have resulted from the firing of kyanite to 1400 degrees C, to the monoclinic to tetragonal transformation of any unstabilized ZrO2, or to the thermal expansion mismatch between kyanite and matrix.
(19) We implanted cylinders of alumina ceramics (Al2O3), zirconia ceramics (ZrO2) and SUS-316 L stainless steel into the distal femoral epiphyses of dogs and then made observations from 4 to 96 wk post-operatively.
(20) Some LPS contaminating BSA lacked affinity for zirconia.
Zirconic
Definition:
(a.) Pertaining to, containing, or resembling, zirconium; as, zirconic oxide; zirconic compounds.
Example Sentences:

(2) The application of zircon (ZrSiO4) that has high refractoriness, high thermal conductivity and a low coefficient of thermal expansion, to quick casting investment was studied.
(3) Disk-shaped implants of spinel, alumina, mullite, zircon, a cast Co-Cr-Mo alloy, and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE), were implanted in the paraspinalis muscle of 12 adult, male, white New Zealand rabbits.
(4) Some samples of red mud, phosphogypsum, zircon products and fly ash did show higher levels of radioactivity than would be acceptable on the basis of a criterion formula for gamma-ray activity suggested for use in some OECD countries.
(5) An Ontario plant with 101 workers, producing and using the ceramic compound lead titanate zirconate (LTZ), was investigated.

(7) Further heating changed surface structure and led to zircon production in the zirconia fibres.
(8) 2) Dainainvest (Ohara) mainly containing zircon indicated the reduction in surface roughness due to coating.
(9) Small casting of pure titanium and K-metal could be done successfully by the quick casting method using the zircon-phosphoric acid investments.
(10) Results were as follows: 1) The refractory compositions of seven commercialized coating materials were composed of alpha-quartz (SiO2), zircon (ZrSiO4) and zirconium oxide (ZrO2).
(11) The transducer usually consists of a piezoelectric crystal composed of such ceramic materials as barium titanate, lead titanate, zirconate, or lead metaniobate.
