Zirconium Ribbon (Zr Ribbon)

Product Code : ME-Zr-RB

Zirconium is a shiny silver-grey metal, It is highly ductile and extremely resistant to corrosion and heat. Its symbol in the periodic table is Zr, and its atomic number is 40. It melts at 1855 degrees Celsius (°C) and boils at 4409 °C, and it is not corroded by acids, alkalis or seawater.

Zirconium (Zr) is a silvery metal with a density of 6.52 g/cm3. Zr has a very small neutron adsorption cross-section and relatively high melting point (1855 °C or 3371 °F), making zirconium a great material for nuclear power rods. In the 1990s, about 90% of zirconium produced every year is consumed by nuclear industry. However, as more and more people get familiar with Zr and its compound, more applications have been found. Zirconium metal and Zirconium alloys have 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, ribbons, flanges bolts, tubes and rods for special applications. Zirconium products also have wide applications in medical equipment, such as zirconium implants. As Zirconium ribbons have better mechanical strength under high temperature, it is also used as support and structure components for high-temperature applications.

ATT is a professional supplier of Zirconium Ribbon (Zr Ribbon), We also produce disc, granules, ingot, pellets, pieces, powder, rod, wire, sputtering target and in numerous other forms and custom shapes. Other shapes are available by request.

Applications of Zirconium Ribbon (Zr Ribbon)

• Used to make high-temperature superconductive materials.
• Used to make electrodes components, ribbons, 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 ribbon has wide applications in medical equipment, such as zirconium implants.


Packing of Zirconium Ribbon (Zr Ribbon)

Standard Packing:

Typical bulk packaging includes palletized plastic 5 gallon/25 kg. pails, fiber and steel drums to 1 ton super sacks in full container (FCL) or truck load (T/L) quantities. Research and sample quantities and hygroscopic, oxidizing or other air sensitive materials may be packaged under argon or vacuum. Solutions are packaged in polypropylene, plastic or glass jars up to palletized 440 gallon liquid totes Special package is available on request.

ATTs’Zirconium Ribbon (Zr Ribbon) is carefully handled to minimize damage during storage and transportation and to preserve the quality of our products in their original condition.
