Please check our FAQ.Zirconium is a heavy metal from the titanium group known for its exceptional corrosion resistance, flexibility, and relatively soft texture. It is easy to roll, forge, and hammer. While zirconium is a poor conductor of electricity, it efficiently conducts heat. At high temperatures, it reacts with most nonmetals, but it remains stable in air due to passivation. The metal is highly resistant to acids, though it can be attacked by aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid at room temperature. Zirconium is unaffected by aqueous bases and, in powdered form, displays pyrophoric properties. It is non-toxic and naturally present in the human body.At Evek GmbH, you can purchase zirconium at a competitive price through our online store. We are committed to providing top-quality products and excellent service.Zirconium is primarily used in nuclear power plants, especially for making shells of uranium fuel elements from Zircaloy alloys. It is also utilized in the chemical industry for constructing plant components like valves, pumps, and stirrers. As an alloying element, zirconium enhances steel’s corrosion resistance and is used in surgical instruments. Additionally, due to its smokeless combustion, it is found in flashlight powders for fireworks and signal lights, as well as in abrasive paper and pigment production.Key properties of zirconium: - Extremely high corrosion resistance - Good flexibility and ductility - Poor electrical conductivity - Relatively good thermal conductivity - Outstanding resistance to most acids and aqueous bases - Pyrophoric in powder form - Non-toxicEvek GmbH is a trusted supplier—order zirconium easily online with worldwide delivery.
