Zirconium 6*6 Evaporation Pellets Packaging Vacuum Packagin 

Zirconium is a chemical element and its symbol Zr atomic number is 40. It is a kind of high melting metal in light gray color. Zirconium surface easy to form a layer of oxide film, with luster, so the appearance of similar to steel. Corrosion resistance, soluble in hydrofluoric acid and aqua regia, high temperature, can react with non-metallic elements and many metallic elements to form a solid solution. Zirconium readily absorbs hydrogen, nitrogen and oxygen; Zirconium has a strong affinity for oxygen, and its volume can be significantly increased when dissolved in oxygen at 1000 °C. Zirconium surface easy to form a layer of oxide film, with luster, so the appearance of similar to steel. Corrosion resistant, but soluble in hydrofluoric acid and aqua regia. At high temperature, it can react with non-metallic elements and many metallic elements to form a solid solution. Zirconium has good plasticity and is easy to process into plate, wire, etc. Zirconium can absorb oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen and other gases in large quantities when heated, and can be used as hydrogen storage material. Zirconium has better corrosion resistance than titanium and is close to niobium and tantalum. Zirconium and hafnium are chemically similar metals that live together and contain radioactive material.

Zirconium alloy a non-ferrous alloy consisting of zirconium as a matrix and the addition of other elements. The main alloying elements are tin, niobium, iron, etc. Zirconium alloy in 300 ~ 400℃ high temperature and high pressure water and steam has good corrosion resistance, moderate mechanical properties, low atomic thermal neutron absorption cross-section, has good compatibility to nuclear fuel, mostly used as the core structure material of water cooled nuclear reactor. In addition, zirconium has excellent corrosion resistance to a variety of acids, alkalis and salts, and has a strong affinity with oxygen, nitrogen and other gases, so zirconium alloys are also used in the manufacture of corrosion resistant parts and pharmaceutical machinery parts, in the electric vacuum and light bulb industry is widely used as a non-evetative degassing agent.
