Zirconium is a rare metal with astonishing corrosion resistance, extremely high melting point, ultra-high hardness and strength, especially excellent corrosion resistance to fluoroboric acid (HBF4), sulfuric acid, boric acid, hydrochloric acid, sulfonic acid, etc.

Zirconium wire is an important alloying element in magnesium alloys, which can improve the tensile strength and processing performance of magnesium. Zirconium wire is a modifier for aluminum magnesium alloys, which can refine the grain size.

Zirconia and zircon are valuable compounds in refractory materials. Zirconia is the main material of new ceramics and cannot be used as a heating material for high-temperature oxidation resistance. Zirconia can be used as an additive for acid resistant enamel and glass, which can significantly improve the elasticity, chemical stability, and heat resistance of glass. Zircon has high light reflection performance and good thermal stability, and can be used as a shading agent in ceramics and glass.

Zirconium wire can absorb a large amount of gases such as oxygen, hydrogen, and ammonia during heating. In electronic tubes, zirconium powder is used as the degassing agent, and zirconium wire and zirconium sheet are used as the ideal suction agent for gate support, anode support, etc. After mixing powdered iron and zirconium nitrate, a sparkling powder is formed. Most of them are used as outer packaging for uranium fuel components in nuclear reactors. It can also withstand photo flash and corrosion-resistant containers and piping, especially hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid.
