It is easy to process through rolling, forging, and hammering. While zirconium is a poor electrical conductor, it has relatively good thermal conductivity. At high temperatures, it reacts with most nonmetals, but in air it remains stable thanks to a protective oxide layer. Zirconium is highly resistant to acids, except for aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid, which can attack it at room temperature. It is not affected by aqueous bases. In a finely divided state, zirconium can be pyrophoric. It is non-toxic and naturally present in the body.We offer competitive zirconium prices in the Evek GmbH online shop, providing high-quality products and excellent customer service.Zirconium is primarily used in nuclear power plants, particularly for uranium fuel element cladding made from Zircaloy alloys. It is also used in the chemical industry for manufacturing components like valves, pumps, and stirrers, and as an alloying element to enhance steel’s corrosion resistance. Surgical instruments are often made from zirconium alloys. Additionally, its smokeless combustion makes it valuable for flashlight powders in fireworks and signal flares. Zirconium is also used in the production of abrasive papers and pigments.Key properties of zirconium include:- Outstanding corrosion resistance - Good ductility and flexibility - Low electrical conductivity - Relatively high thermal conductivity - Excellent resistance to most acids and aqueous bases - Pyrophoric behavior in powder form - Non-toxic natureWith Evek GmbH, you can easily purchase zirconium online.
