Zirconium rod production process
Raw material preparation
Select high-purity zirconium ore as raw material.
Crush and grind the zirconium ore to obtain fine ore particles.
Smelting and casting
1. Mix zirconium ore with other metal elements in a certain proportion and put them into an electric furnace for smelting.
2. Pour the molten alloy into a pre-prepared casting mold, cool and solidify it, and obtain the initial zirconium rod blank.
Hot working and finishing
1. Perform hot working on the zirconium rod blank, including hot rolling, hot extrusion and other processes to improve its density and mechanical properties.
2. Perform finishing, including cold rolling, cold drawing and other processes, to obtain higher precision and better surface quality.
Heat treatment and surface treatment
The zirconium rod is heat treated to improve its crystal structure and mechanical properties through solid solution, aging and other processes. Surface treatment, including polishing, pickling and other processes, to improve the surface quality and finish of the zirconium rod.
