Please refer to our FAQ for details.Zirconium is a heavy metal from the titanium group, known for its exceptional corrosion resistance, good flexibility, and relatively soft texture. It is easy to roll, forge, and hammer. While zirconium is a poor conductor of electricity, it conducts heat relatively well. At high temperatures, it can react with most nonmetals, but it remains stable in air due to passivation. Zirconium metal resists acids but can be affected by aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid at room temperature. It is not sensitive to aqueous bases and, in finely divided form, can be pyrophoric. Zirconium is non-toxic and naturally present in the human body.At Evek GmbH, you can find up-to-date zirconium prices in our online shop. We are committed to offering quality products and excellent customer service.Zirconium is primarily used in nuclear power plants, especially for making shells for uranium fuel elements (Zircaloy alloy). It is also used in the chemical industry for equipment such as valves, pumps, and stirrers, and as an alloying metal to improve steel’s corrosion resistance. Surgical instruments are made from zirconium alloys, and due to its smokeless combustion, zirconium is used in flashlight powders for fireworks and signal lights.Applications of zirconium include: - Nuclear power plants (fuel element cladding) - Chemical industry (plant construction) - Alloying in steel and surgical instruments - Flashlight powder for fireworks and signal lights - Abrasive paper and pigment productionKey properties of zirconium: - Extremely high corrosion resistance - Good flexibility and workability - Poor electrical conductivity - Relatively good heat conductivity - Excellent resistance to most acids and aqueous bases - Pyrophoric in powder form - Non-toxicEvek GmbH is your trusted supplier for zirconium.
