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 structure. It is easy to roll, forge, and hammer. While zirconium has poor electrical conductivity, it is a decent conductor of heat. At elevated temperatures, it reacts with most nonmetals, but thanks to passivation, it remains stable in air. The metal resists acids but is susceptible to aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid at room temperature. Zirconium is unaffected by aqueous bases and, in fine powder form, is pyrophoric. It is non-toxic and naturally present in the human body.At Evek GmbH’s online shop, you’ll find up-to-date zirconium prices. We are committed to supplying high-quality products and excellent customer service.Zirconium’s main application is in nuclear power plants, especially for manufacturing fuel element claddings from Zircaloy alloys. It is also widely used in chemical plant construction (such as valves, pumps, and stirrers), as an alloying element to enhance steel’s corrosion resistance, and in producing surgical instruments. Due to its smokeless combustion, zirconium is used in fireworks and signal lights as flashlight powder. It is also important in the production of abrasive papers and pigments.Key properties and uses of zirconium: - Excellent corrosion resistance - Good flexibility and extensibility - Low electrical but good thermal conductivity - Outstanding resistance to most acids and aqueous bases - Pyrophoric in powdered form - Non-toxicPurchase zirconium easily from Evek GmbH, your reliable supplier.
