Please refer to our FAQ for more details.Zirconium is a heavy metal from the titanium group, known for its exceptional corrosion resistance, good flexibility, and relatively soft structure. It can be easily rolled, forged, and hammered. While zirconium conducts heat well, it is a poor conductor of electricity. At high temperatures, it reacts with most nonmetals, but it remains stable in air due to passivation. The metal is resistant to acids, though it can be attacked by aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid at room temperature. Zirconium is unaffected by aqueous bases and, in powdered form, can be pyrophoric. It is non-toxic and occurs naturally in the human body.At Evek GmbH, you can find competitive prices for zirconium in our online shop. We are committed to offering high-quality products and outstanding customer service.Zirconium is primarily used in nuclear power plants for uranium fuel element cladding (Zircaloy). It is also utilized in the chemical industry for constructing plant components such as valves, pumps, and stirrers. As an alloying element, zirconium enhances the corrosion resistance of steel and is used in surgical instruments. Its smokeless combustion makes it suitable for use in fireworks and signal lights. Additionally, zirconium is used in the production of abrasive paper and pigments.Key applications of zirconium include: - Nuclear power plant components (fuel element cladding) - Chemical plant construction - Alloying in steel and surgical instruments - Fireworks and signal lights - Abrasive paper and pigment manufacturingZirconium stands out for: - Very high corrosion resistance - Good flexibility and ductility - Poor electrical conductivity - Relatively good thermal conductivity - Excellent resistance to most acids and aqueous bases - Pyrophoric properties in powdered form - Non-toxicityOrder zirconium easily from Evek GmbH, your reliable supplier.
