Zirconium (Zr) For Industry
The main properties of zirconium metal are high strength and excellent corrosion resistance when alloyed with other materials. This metal is suitable for industrial, marine and other environments and has good metallurgical workability and excellent fatigue resistance.
Description
Glittering like a diamond, zirconium has many applications. In addition to its use in the jewellery sector, zirconium is a semi-precious stone mainly used in the form of alloys in the nuclear industry. Its exceptional resistance to high temperatures, its corrosion resistance and its transparency to neutrons make it the alloy of choice for various chemical processes.
Products Description
Zirconium is a very strong, malleable, ductile, lustrous silver-gray metal. Its chemical and physical properties are similar to those of titanium. Zirconium is extremely resistant to heat and corrosion. Zirconium is lighter than steel and its hardness is similar to copper. When it is finely divided, the metal can spontaneously ignite in air, especially at high temperatures. Zirconium powder is black and is regarded as very dangerous fire hazard. Zirconium does not dissolve in acids and alkalis.
