High heat resistance makes zirconium alloys a very valuable material in nuclear power engineering. Zirconium alloys have a clear advantage with respect to strength at temperatures up to 800 ° C. This explains the efforts to expand the use of zirconium alloys in the production of power plants of nuclear reactors.

Pipes

The neutron capture cross section is measured in barns. Pure zirconium has a capture cross-section of 0.18 barn. Zirconium is hot-resistant and melts only at 1860 ° C. Ukraine has developed a production technology for a large assortment of pipes based on the zirconium brand KTTS-110. Such pipes are widely used today in heat exchangers of nuclear reactors.

Radiation protection

Protecting NPP personnel from penetrating radiation is a paramount task. A thin zirconium plate delays radiation much better than a lead protective apron. A special fabric for protective suits is being developed on the basis of a fabric made of zirconia thread.

Storage

In closed warehouses or under a canopy, where adequate protection against mechanical and other damages is provided.
