Zirconium (IV) hydroxide, often called hydrous zirconia is an ill-defined material or family of materials variously described as ${\ce {ZrO2.{\mathit {n}}H2O}}$ and ${\ce {Zr(OH)4.{\mathit {n}}H2O}}$ . All are white solids with low solubility in water. These materials are widely employed in the preparation of solid acid catalysts.^[1]^[2]

These materials are generated by mild base hydrolysis of zirconium halides and nitrates. A typical precursor is zirconium oxychloride.^[1]
