Abstract ZrC nano-crystals and 2D-nanosheet ZrC were synthesized by carbothermal reduction method using glucose and graphene as carbon source and zirconium acetate as zirconium source. The effects of carbon source and the synthesized temperature on morphology and phase composition of ZrC were investigated. The results show that using glucose as carbon source, ZrC is formed initially at 1 400 ℃ and completely transformed to ZrC nano-crystals at 1 600 ℃ with the sizes in the range of 140-200 nm. Using graphene as carbon source, ZrC 2D-nanosheet is synthesized at 1 600 ℃ with the thickness of 240 nm. Graphene not only offers carbon source, but also serves as a template for the precipitation of ZrO2 and growing of ZrC 2D-nanosheet in the carbothermal reduction.
