Zirconium sulfate manufacturers introduce the application of zirconium in the military industry

The application of zirconium is very extensive, but do you know? Zirconium also has important applications in the fields of aerospace, military industry, nuclear reaction, and atomic energy. The following zirconium sulfate manufacturers will introduce to you.

From a military point of view, as long as one-thousandth of zirconium is added to steel, the hardness and strength will be surprisingly high. Zirconium-containing armored steel, cannon forging steel, stainless steel and heat-resistant steel are important materials for manufacturing armored vehicles, tanks, cannons and bulletproof plates.

From the point of view of nuclear energy and nuclear energy, zirconium has outstanding nuclear properties and is an indispensable material for the development of the nuclear energy industry. my country’s large nuclear power plants generally use zirconium. It will consume 20 to 25 tons of zirconium metal. A 30,000 horsepower; nuclear submarine uses zirconium and zirconium alloys as nuclear fuel jackets and pressure tubes, and the use of zirconium reaches 20 to 30 tons.

Zirconium is a rare metal with amazing corrosion resistance, extremely high melting point, ultra-high hardness and strength. It is widely used in the fields of aerospace, military, nuclear reaction, and atomic energy. The corrosion-resistant and high-resistant titanium products used on the "Shenzhou VI" are far less corrosion-resistant than zirconium. Its melting point is about 1600 degrees, while the melting point of zirconium is above 1800 degrees, and the melting point of zirconium dioxide is as high as 2700. Therefore, as an aerospace material, zirconium has all aspects of performance much better than titanium.
