Cyrkon (Zr 702)
Zirconium has a high affinity for oxygen that facilitates the formation of a protective oxide film. That results in high corrosion resistance in the most acids. Zirconium has a wide variety of applications in the nuclear industry. Its properties are also biocompatibility and non-toxicity. That is why zirconium is used in the chemical industry for valves, pumps, pipes, heat exchanger and in the medical industry..
