Please check our FAQ for details.Zirconium belongs to the titanium group of heavy metals and stands out for its excellent corrosion resistance, good flexibility, and softness. 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 reacts with most non-metals, though it remains stable in air due to passivation. Zirconium 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, it can be pyrophoric. Zirconium is non-toxic and naturally occurs in the human body.In the Evek GmbH online shop, you will find current zirconium prices. We are committed to providing high-quality products and outstanding service.Zirconium is mainly used in the nuclear industry, especially for making shells for uranium fuel elements (Zircaloy alloy). It is also used in the chemical industry for manufacturing plant components such as valves and pumps, and as an alloying element to enhance steel’s corrosion resistance. Zirconium alloys are used in surgical instruments, and due to its smokeless combustion, it is used in flashlight powders for fireworks and signal lights.Applications of zirconium include: - Nuclear power plants (fuel element cladding) - Chemical industry (plant construction) - Alloy metal for steel and surgical instruments - Flashlight powder for fireworks and signal lights - Abrasive paper and pigment productionKey properties of zirconium: - Outstanding corrosion resistance - High flexibility and ductility - Low electrical conductivity - Good thermal conductivity - Excellent resistance to most acids and bases - Pyrophoric in powder form - Non-toxicOrder zirconium easily from Evek GmbH, your reliable supplier.
