Please refer to our FAQ.Zirconium is a heavy metal belonging to the titanium group, known for its exceptional corrosion resistance, good flexibility, and relatively soft texture. It can be easily rolled, forged, or hammered. Zirconium conducts heat well but is a poor conductor of electricity. At high temperatures, it reacts with most nonmetals but remains stable in air due to passivation. This metal resists most acids but is attacked by aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid even at room temperature. It is unaffected by aqueous bases and, in powdered form, is pyrophoric. Zirconium is non-toxic and present in the human body.At Evek GmbH, you can find up-to-date zirconium prices in our online shop. We pride ourselves on providing high-quality products and outstanding service.Zirconium’s main applications include nuclear power plants, where it is used for cladding uranium fuel rods (Zircaloy alloy), as well as in the chemical industry for manufacturing equipment like valves, pumps, and stirrers. When used as an alloying element, zirconium increases steel’s corrosion resistance and is also used in surgical instruments. Its smokeless combustion makes it ideal for use in fireworks and signal lights as flashlight powder.Typical uses of zirconium: - In nuclear power plants (fuel rod cladding) - In the chemical industry (plant construction) - As an alloying element in steel and surgical instruments - As flashlight powder in fireworks and signal lights - In the production of abrasive paper and pigmentsKey properties of zirconium: - Extremely high corrosion resistance - Good flexibility and ductility - Poor electrical conductivity - Good thermal conductivity - Excellent resistance to most acids and aqueous bases - Pyrophoric in powder form - Non-toxicOrder zirconium easily and securely from Evek GmbH.
