Product Specifications

Physical and Chemical Properties

Zirconium is well-known for its excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in acidic and aqueous environments. This makes it suitable for demanding applications where exposure to harsh conditions is frequent. ASTM Grade Zirconium Foil exhibits the following key properties:

• Corrosion Resistance: Exceptional resistance to corrosion in acidic and chlorinated environments.
• Thermal Conductivity: Offers excellent heat transfer, making it ideal for high-temperature applications.
• Ductility: Easy to shape and form into custom sizes, providing versatility in manufacturing.
• Low Neutron-Cross Section: This property makes it invaluable for use in nuclear reactors.

Applications of ASTM B 551 Grade Zirconium Foil

1. Aerospace Industry: Due to its high strength-to-weight ratio and excellent corrosion resistance, zirconium foil is commonly used in aerospace components, where performance under extreme conditions is required.
2. Nuclear Energy: Zirconium’s low neutron absorption and high heat resistance make it indispensable in nuclear reactors, especially in fuel rod cladding and other critical components.
3. Chemical Processing: The foil’s resistance to aggressive chemicals, including acids and bases, makes it ideal for use in heat exchangers, pumps, and reactors in the chemical processing industry.
4. Medical Devices: Its biocompatibility allows zirconium foil to be used in medical implants and surgical instruments, providing both safety and reliability.
5. Electronics: In the electronics sector, zirconium foil is used in components requiring precision and stability, particularly under extreme temperature conditions.

Manufacturing Process of ASTM Grade Zirconium Foil

​​​​​​​

Our zirconium foil is manufactured through a rigorous production process that ensures high quality and compliance with ASTM B551 standards:

1. Raw Material Selection: High-purity zirconium is sourced to ensure the final product meets stringent quality requirements.
2. Melting: The material is melted in a vacuum arc furnace to remove impurities and ensure uniformity.
3. Rolling: The molten zirconium is cast into ingots and rolled into thin sheets using precision rolling mills.
4. Annealing: The foil is annealed in a vacuum furnace to improve its ductility and mechanical properties.
5. Quality Testing: Each batch undergoes strict quality testing, including tensile strength, thickness uniformity, and surface finish inspections.
6. Custom Cutting: The foil is cut to the required dimensions and packaged for shipment.
