Zirconium is a silvery-gray and versatile metal that is derived from the mineral zircon. It is known for its improved wear and heat resistance, making it suitable for applications involving friction and abrasion. It is chemically inert in many environments and assists in maintaining the purity of materials and substances it meets. It has a high melting point, which makes it a preferred choice for applications in high-temperature environments. It plays a crucial role in the generation of clean and sustainable nuclear energy. It can also withstand high temperatures without undergoing significant deformation or degradation. It assists in providing improved biocompatibility, which makes it well-tolerated by the human body. Besides this, it aids in reducing the weight of several components while maintaining their structural integrity.

According to the latest report by IMARC Group, The global zirconium market size reached US$ 1.9 Billion in 2023. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 3.5 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 6.8% during 2024-2032.
