Owing to its properties, such as high bonding capacity, low acidity, low thermal expansion coefficient, high chemical resistance, low wettability by molten metal, and good recyclability, zirconium is extremely suitable for use in foundry and refractories. These properties make zirconium suitable for use as a molding base material for sand casting and investment casting, in addition to its use as mold coating in die-casting and in refractory paints and washes to reduce the wettability of other foundry sands. It is mostly used in the form of sand and flour. Additionally, it is used in a wide range of refractory operations including refractory mortar, firebricks, or refractory linings for glass and metal furnaces, as well as fibers, nozzles, slide gates, valves, and grouts.

Virtual Private Network (VPN) extends the corporate network, over encrypted connections made through the public internet. Since, the traffic is encrypted between the network and the device, traffic remains private as it travels.

Superabsorbent polymers are used as an absorbent, as they can absorb up to 300 times of their weight in aqueous fluids. Owing to characteristics, such as protecting the skin against drying, irritation, and infections, the largest use of superabsorbent polymers is in personal hygiene products, which include feminine hygiene products, diapers, and adult incontinence products. The governments in different countries are continuously collaborating with various NGOs, media center, and various companies, to educate people about personal hygiene management. The motive behind these initiatives is to keep the environment cleaner and safer and to avoid the spread of various diseases. According to the World Health Organization, every year, around 15 million babies are born in the world and this number is increasing. With the rising infant born rate and increasing awareness toward hygiene of a baby, the demand for superabsorbent polymers is increasing.
