Please check our FAQ for details.Zirconium is a heavy metal belonging to the titanium group, known for its exceptional corrosion resistance, good flexibility, and relative softness. It can be easily rolled, forged, or hammered. While zirconium is a poor conductor of electricity, it offers good thermal conductivity. At high temperatures, it reacts with most nonmetals, but thanks to passivation, it remains stable in air and resists most acids; however, aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid can attack it even at room temperature. Zirconium is not affected by aqueous bases and, in fine powder form, is pyrophoric. It is non-toxic and naturally present in the human body.We offer competitive zirconium prices in the Evek GmbH online shop, ensuring high-quality products and excellent customer service.Zirconium’s main application is in nuclear power plants, where it is used for cladding uranium fuel elements (Zircaloy alloy). It is also used in chemical engineering for manufacturing valves, pumps, and mixers, and as an alloying element to enhance steel’s corrosion resistance. Medical tools are made from zirconium alloys, and due to its smokeless combustion, it is used in flash powders for fireworks and signal flares.Typical uses for zirconium include: - Nuclear power plant components (fuel element cladding) - Construction of chemical plant equipment - Alloying for steel and surgical instruments - Flash powder for fireworks and signal lights - Production of abrasive paper and pigmentsKey properties of zirconium: - Outstanding corrosion resistance - Excellent flexibility and ductility - Low electrical conductivity - Good thermal conductivity - High resistance to most acids and aqueous bases - Pyrophoric in powder form - Non-toxicPurchase zirconium easily from Evek GmbH, your trusted supplier.
