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 texture. It is easy to roll, forge, and hammer. While zirconium is a poor conductor of electricity, it has relatively good thermal conductivity. At high temperatures, it reacts with most nonmetals, but remains stable in air due to passivation. The metal resists acids well, though it is affected by aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid at room temperature. Zirconium is not reactive to aqueous bases, and in powder form, it can be pyrophoric. It is non-toxic and naturally present in the human body.At Evek GmbH, you can find current prices for zirconium in our online shop. We are committed to offering high-quality products and excellent customer service.Zirconium’s primary application is in nuclear power plants, where it is used for the cladding of uranium fuel rods (Zircaloy alloy). It is also essential in the chemical industry for constructing plant components like valves, pumps, and stirrers. As an alloying element, zirconium enhances steel’s corrosion resistance and is used in manufacturing surgical instruments. Due to its smokeless combustion, zirconium is also used in flashlight powders for fireworks and signal flares.Applications of zirconium include: - Nuclear power plants (fuel rod cladding) - Chemical industry (plant construction) - Alloy production (steel, surgical instruments) - Flashlight powder (fireworks, signal lights) - Abrasive paper and pigment manufacturingKey characteristics of zirconium: - Excellent corrosion resistance - Good flexibility and ductility - Poor electrical conductivity - Good thermal conductivity - Resistant to most acids and aqueous bases - Pyrophoric in powder form - Non-toxicWith Evek GmbH, a trusted supplier, you can easily purchase zirconium online.
