Zirconium tube is a tubular material with a purity of more than 99% made from metal zirconium. Due to the excellent properties and corrosion resistance of zirconium, zirconium tubes are often used in fuel assemblies and internal structures of water-cooled reactors, and are important materials. Zirconium tubes are mainly used to manufacture chemical equipment, because they are expensive and not much used. |

Process |
(1) Zirconium has a strong affinity with gas. It reacts with O, H and N at about 200, 300 and 400 °C, respectively. The reaction is rapid at higher temperatures, so casting and heat treatment must be carried out in a vacuum furnace. When hot working in the atmosphere, proper protection should be taken and the operating time at high temperature should be shortened. (2) The friction coefficient between zirconium and the mold is high, and it is easy to adhere to the surface of the mold; the thermal effect of plastic deformation is good, and good lubrication conditions are required during processing. |
