Technical Breakthrough: Ruihenghua Zirconium Clad Copper Applied in Rare Metal Electrolysis With Fluoride-containing Electrolyte

Conventional titanium materials tend to suffer corrosion failure under fluoride-containing highly corrosive electrolyte environments. Using explosive cladding technology, Ruihenghua developed zirconium clad copper conductive composites. The outer zirconium layer delivers superior corrosion resistance in reducing acid and fluoride media, while copper core maintains excellent electrical conductivity. Our zirconium clad copper busbars were recently delivered to a rare metal electrolysis project. On-site customer tests confirm stable conductivity and corrosion resistance meeting target specifications. Besides zirconium clad copper, we also supply titanium clad copper, stainless steel clad copper, titanium cathode plates, stainless steel cathode plates and titanium clad aluminum, and offer material selection advice for different electrolyte systems. Our technical team customizes cladding material and thickness according to customer's electrolyte composition, temperature and current density, providing one-stop technical support from material selection, machining to inspection.
