ZR0902 Zirconium Foil

Descriptions of Zirconium Foil

Zirconium metal and Zirconium alloys has advantages in specialized chemical environments – primarily acetic and hydrochloric acids. The corrosion resistance of Zirconium comes from a tightly adhered oxide that forms almost instantaneously. As a result, zirconium has been used to make electrodes components, foils, flanges bolts, tubes and rods for special applications.

Advanced Refractory Metals is a leading supplier and manufacturer of zirconium foil and a wide variety of Zirconium products. Customized forms are available upon request.

Applications of Zirconium Foil

* Used to make high-temperature superconductive materials.
* Used to make electrodes components, foils, flanges bolts, tubes and rods for special applications.
* Zirconium alloys are also considered to be promising materials for commercial amorphous metal, also called metallic glass. Compared with common metal materials, amorphous metal has no grain boundaries, leading to better wear resistance and hardness.
* Zirconium foil has wide applications in medical equipment, such as zirconium implants.
