Goodfellow offers zirconium pellets as part of its range of pellets. Zirconium is a lustrous greyish-white ductile transition metal with excellent corrosion resistance. The zirconium pellets have high strength at elevated temperatures and low absorption cross section for thermal neutrons. These properties make the pellets ideal for applications in the nuclear industry, where they are commonly used as fuel cladding in nuclear reactors. The corrosion resistance also suits zirconium for use in aggressive chemical environments. Goodfellow's zirconium pellets provide researchers and engineers with a high purity form of this versatile metal.
