Please refer to our FAQ for details.Zirconium is a heavy metal belonging 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 efficiently conducts heat. At high temperatures, it reacts with most nonmetals, but it remains stable in air due to passivation. The metal is highly resistant to acids, though it can be affected by aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid at room temperature. Zirconium is not reactive to aqueous bases, and in its finely divided form, it displays pyrophoric properties. 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 customer service.The main applications for zirconium include use in nuclear power plants (as cladding for uranium fuel rods), the chemical industry (for plant construction components like valves and pumps), and as an alloying element to improve steel’s corrosion resistance. Zirconium alloys are also used for surgical instruments. Additionally, due to its smokeless combustion, zirconium is used as a component in flashlight powders for fireworks and signal lights.Typical uses for zirconium: - Nuclear power plants (fuel element cladding) - Chemical industry equipment - Alloying metal for steel and surgical instruments - Flashlight powder for fireworks and signal lights - Manufacturing of abrasive papers and pigmentsKey properties of zirconium: - Outstanding corrosion resistance - Good flexibility and ductility - Low electrical conductivity - Relatively good thermal conductivity - Excellent resistance to most acids and aqueous bases - Pyrophoric when finely divided - Non-toxicWith Evek GmbH as your trusted supplier, you can purchase zirconium easily and reliably, with worldwide delivery available.
