Zirconium Powder

Zirconium (Zr) is a light gray metal with a density of 6.49 g/cm3, a high melting point of 1850 ℃, and a boiling point of 4377 ℃. Zirconium Powder is a gray powder with a metallic luster. It is flammable in the air and emits white light when burning, forming zirconium oxide. It is insoluble in water, soluble in hot concentrated acid, hydrofluoric acid, aqua regia, and concentrated sulfuric acid. Due to its excellent gas absorption and high-temperature resistance properties, zirconium powder is well applied and studied in zirconium products, thermal spraying fields, and powder metallurgy processes.

Zirconium Powder Applications

  • Nuclear Industry: Zirconium powder is used to manufacture fuel cladding and other structural materials for nuclear reactors.
  • Aerospace: Zirconium powder is commonly used to manufacture structural materials for aerospace vehicles.
  • Powder Metallurgy: zirconium powder can be used to manufacture high-performance alloys and composite materials to enhance the strength and wear resistance of materials.
  • Fireworks: Zirconium powder can be used as a burning agent in fireworks, emitting bright white light when burning.
  • Electro-Vacuum Industry: Zirconium powder can be used to make electro-vacuum devices in the suction agent, to maintain the vacuum environment.

Zirconium Powder Packaging

The Zirconium Powder is carefully placed in wooden cases or cartons with additional support from soft materials to prevent any shifting during transportation. This packaging method guarantees the integrity of the products throughout the delivery process.
