Please refer to our FAQ.Zirconium is a heavy metal in the titanium group, known for its exceptional corrosion resistance, good flexibility, and relatively soft texture. It is easily rolled, forged, and hammered. While it is a poor conductor of electricity, it has relatively good thermal conductivity. At high temperatures, zirconium reacts with most nonmetals, but remains stable in air due to passivation. The metal is resistant to most acids, though it can be affected by aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid at room temperature. Zirconium is not sensitive to aqueous bases and, in powder form, shows pyrophoric behavior. It is non-toxic and naturally present in the human body.At Evek GmbH, you will find up-to-date zirconium pricing and high-quality products with excellent customer service.Zirconium is primarily used in nuclear power plants for uranium fuel element cladding, in the chemical industry for plant construction parts like valves and pumps, and as an alloying element to improve steel’s corrosion resistance. It is also used in surgical instruments, as a component in fireworks and signal lights, and in the production of abrasive papers and pigments due to its smokeless combustion.Key properties of zirconium include: - High corrosion resistance - Good flexibility and formability - Low electrical conductivity - Good thermal conductivity - Excellent resistance to acids and aqueous bases - Pyrophoric properties in powder form - Non-toxicEvek GmbH is your reliable supplier for zirconium, offering worldwide delivery and attentive service.
