QS Advanced Materials Zirconium Foil: Product Category Overview
1. Introduction
Zirconium foil is a specialty metal product valued for its corrosion resistance, oxidation properties, and versatility in industrial applications. As a leading zirconium foil China manufacturer, QS Advanced Materials supplies high‑quality zirconium foil, sheets, and profiles to research institutions and advanced industries worldwide. With over a decade of experience in specialty metals, QS Advanced Materials has built a reputation as a trusted zirconium foil manufacturer, delivering consistent quality backed by advanced production processes and strict quality control.
QS Advanced Materials has been active in the industry as a supplier of specialty metals for over a decade. We provide high-quality zirconium foil, sheets, and other metal profiles to our clients. Zirconium metal without hafnium separation is generally used only for civilian purposes. Due to its susceptibility to oxidation, which forms a dense zirconium oxide protective layer, zirconium exhibits excellent corrosion resistance and is commonly employed in chemical reaction equipment. Meanwhile, owing to this same oxidation-prone characteristic, thin zirconium foil is also utilized as a reducing agent in metallurgy and other industries to absorb oxygen from the environment.
Zirconium foil is typically produced through precision rolling of thicker plates or sheets, involving multiple rounds of vacuum annealing during the process. QS Advanced Materials can consistently supply zirconium foil with a thickness of 0.05mm or greater, maintaining stable quality. The thickness tolerance is kept within 10%.
