Hafnium is a heavy metal known for its excellent corrosion resistance and can crystallize in two forms depending on temperature. Pure hafnium is soft, malleable, and easy to roll or forge. When exposed to air, it forms a thin oxide layer that protects against further oxidation. Hafnium resists most acids and at room temperature only dissolves in aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid. In powder form, hafnium is pyrophoric but non-toxic.

The competitive hafnium prices at Evek GmbH online shop are attractive to all customers. We focus on excellent service and customer satisfaction to build long-term partnerships.

Hafnium is primarily used in nuclear technology, serving as a control rod material in nuclear reactors, including those in submarines. Adding just 2% hafnium to tungsten, molybdenum, niobium, or tantalum alloys significantly boosts their strength and heat resistance.

Common uses for hafnium include:

• Nuclear technology (nuclear reactors);
• Military applications (nuclear submarine reactors);
• Flash lamps;
• As an alloying element with niobium, tantalum, molybdenum, and tungsten.

Key properties of hafnium:

• High ductility;
• Easy to roll and forge;
• Resistant to oxidation in air;
• Excellent resistance to most acids;
• Pyrophoric in fine powder form;
• Non-toxic.
