Please refer to our FAQ for details.Zirconium is a heavy metal related to the titanium group, known for its exceptional corrosion resistance, good flexibility, and relatively soft texture. It is easy to process by rolling, forging, and hammering. While zirconium is a poor conductor of electricity, it has relatively good thermal conductivity. The metal is stable in air due to passivation and resists acids, though it can be affected by aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid at room temperature. Zirconium is not sensitive to aqueous bases, and in fine powder form, it can be pyrophoric. It 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 high-quality products and excellent service.Zirconium’s main applications include the nuclear industry, where it is used for cladding uranium fuel elements as Zircaloy. It is also found in chemical plant construction (valves, pumps, stirrers), and as an alloying element to improve steel's corrosion resistance. Surgical instruments are often made from zirconium alloys. Due to its smokeless combustion, it is used in flash powders for fireworks and signal lights, as well as in the production of abrasive papers and pigments.Key uses for zirconium: - Nuclear power plants (fuel element cladding) - Chemical industry (plant construction) - Alloying metal (steel, surgical tools) - Flash powder for fireworks and signal lights - Abrasive paper and pigment manufactureKey properties of zirconium: - Extremely high resistance to corrosion - Good flexibility and ductility - Poor electrical conductivity - Good thermal conductivity - Excellent resistance to most acids and aqueous bases - Pyrophoric in powdered form - Non-toxicPurchase zirconium easily from Evek GmbH, your trusted supplier.
