Zirconium rod

Material: R60702, r60704, r60705, ZR1, Zr2

Executive standard: ASTM b550 ASTM b551 GB / t21183-2007

Zirconium tube rod is an alloy tubular material made of zirconium and other metals. Due to the excellent nuclear performance and corrosion resistance of zirconium, zirconium alloy tubes and rods are often used in nuclear fuel assemblies and reactor structures of water-cooled reactors. They are important nuclear materials.

Pure zirconium tube and rod is mainly used to manufacture chemical equipment because of its high price and small consumption. The chemical composition and uses of commonly used zirconium tube rods are shown in the table, in which zirconium tin alloy tube rods are used in a large amount.

Zirconium alloys are solid solutions of zirconium or other metals. Zirconium has very low thermal neutron absorption cross section, high hardness, ductility and corrosion resistance. Zirconium alloy is mainly used in the field of nuclear technology, such as fuel rods in nuclear reactors. Nuclear grade zirconium

The typical composition of gold is more than 95% zirconium and less than 2% tin, niobium, iron, chromium, nickel and other metals. These metals are added to improve mechanical properties and corrosion resistance.

Zirconium alloy has corrosion resistance and biocompatibility, so it can be used for implantation into the body. In medicine, zr-2.5nb alloy can be made into knee or hip implants. This zirconium alloy material can reduce friction, increase wear resistance and maintain

The overall properties (manufacturability, fracture toughness and ductility) provide a good solution for medical implants.
