Zirconium Sponge (Industrial Grade) Description

The zirconium sponge is a metallic fragment. Its physical appearance conforms to the standards of steel. Zirconium Sponge (Industrial Grade) is primarily utilised in the manufacture of chemically corrosion‐resistant equipment, the electronics industry, pipeline valve materials, specialised high‐strength and high‐temperature alloy materials, electrical vacuum components and getter parts for lighting filaments.

Properties:

1. Porous structure: Zirconium Sponge (Industrial Grade) provides a highly porous framework. It contains a large number of small pores, thereby offering an increased surface area and quantifiable adsorption capacity.

2. Large surface area: Owing to its porous nature, Zirconium Sponge (Industrial Grade) features an extensive surface area. Consequently, there are increased active sites available for adsorption and reaction in catalytic or gas adsorption processes.

3. Biocompatibility: Zirconium is generally recognised as biocompatible. This property renders the zirconium sponge a potential carrier for drug delivery systems or a scaffold material in biomedical research.

4. High melting point: Zirconium is a metal with a high melting point. Consequently, Zirconium Sponges (Industrial Grade) remain stable in high-temperature environments and are suitable for specified industrial applications.

5. Catalytic properties: The porous structure and surface characteristics of Zirconium Sponge (Industrial Grade) enable its use as a catalyst carrier. It facilitates improved catalyst dispersion and enhances catalytic performance quantitatively.

6. Electrical conductivity: Since zirconium is a metal, Zirconium Sponge (Industrial Grade) exhibits electrical conductivity.

7. Gas adsorption properties: The porous structure of Zirconium Sponge (Industrial Grade) confers effective gas adsorption characteristics.

Zirconium Sponge (Industrial Grade) Applications

1. Catalyst carrier: The extensive surface area and porous structure of Zirconium Sponge (Industrial Grade) qualify it as a carrier for catalysts. It is employed to load catalysts thereby improving dispersion and measured performance.

2. Gas adsorption: The porous structure of Zirconium Sponge (Industrial Grade) provides a high capacity for gas adsorption. This property is applied in gas storage and separation, for instance in hydrogen storage and carbon dioxide removal.

3. Energy storage: Zirconium Sponge (Industrial Grade) is used as an electrode material in capacitors. Its large surface area contributes to an increased energy storage capacity in these devices.

4. Biomedical: The biocompatibility and porous structure of zirconium sponges present potential for biomedical applications. This includes use as a carrier in drug delivery systems or as a scaffold in tissue engineering.

5. Adsorbents: Zirconium Sponges (Industrial Grade) can function as adsorbents for water pollutants and organic contaminants. They are applied in water treatment and environmental protection projects, thereby supporting pollutant removal measures.

6. Other industrial areas: The sponge is also utilised in the production of chemically corrosion‐resistant equipment, electronics, pipeline valve materials, specialised high‐strength and high‐temperature alloy materials, electrical vacuum components and getter parts for lighting filaments.
