Hafnium is a heavy, corrosion-resistant metal that can exist in two different crystal forms depending on temperature. Pure hafnium is soft, ductile, and easy to roll or forge. When exposed to air, it naturally forms a thin oxide film that protects it from further oxidation. Hafnium is highly resistant to most acids, dissolving only in aqua regia and hydrofluoric acid at room temperature. In powdered form, hafnium is pyrophoric but remains non-toxic.

Our online store, Evek GmbH, offers competitive hafnium prices, ensuring excellent value for our customers. We focus on outstanding service and customer satisfaction, building the foundation for long-term partnerships.

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

Typical uses for hafnium include:

• Nuclear reactors
• Military applications (nuclear submarines)
• Flash lamps
• Alloying element in niobium, tantalum, molybdenum, and tungsten alloys

Hafnium stands out for its:

• Excellent ductility
• Ease of rolling and forging
• Resistance to air exposure
• High resistance to most acids
• Pyrophoric properties in fine powder form
• Non-toxic nature
