Zirconium foil is an ultra-thin metal foil made from high-purity industrial-grade zirconium (Zr702/R60702) or nuclear-grade zirconium through precision rolling. Common thicknesses range from 0.01mm to 0.5mm. It possesses excellent corrosion resistance, high-temperature resistance, neutron absorption properties, processability, and surface finish, making it a key functional material in high-end industrial fields.
1. Chemical Composition
| Brand | Zr | Cr | Fe | Hf | C | Nb | H | N | O |
| R60702 | 99.2 | 0.010 | 0.045 | 2.15 | 0.050 | / | ≤0.0094 | ≤0.02 | ≤0.16 |
| R60705 | 95.5 | 0.010 | 0.045 | 2.3 | 0.045 | 2.4 | ≤0.004 | ≤0..02 | ≤0.16 |
Key Features
* **Extreme Corrosion Resistance:** Resistant to acids, alkalis, seawater, chlorides, and organic acids, far superior to stainless steel. Extensively stable under high temperature and high pressure corrosive environments.
* **High Temperature and Oxidation Resistance:** Can be used long-term at temperatures above 400℃. A dense oxide film easily forms on the surface, providing excellent oxidation resistance.
* **Low Neutron Absorption Cross Section:** Nuclear-grade zirconium exhibits extremely low neutron absorption, making it a key material for nuclear reactors.
* **Good Mechanical and Machinability:** Can be stamped, etched, laser-cut, welded, and bent, suitable for manufacturing precision micro-parts.
* **Non-magnetic, Electrically and Thermally Stable:** Suitable for electronics, vacuum applications, and precision instruments.
