Zirconium Latest Industry News
• In December 2021, ARTMS Inc., the US-based commercial nuclear pharmacy (ARTMS, announced that zirconium-89 (89Zr) oxalate is being produced with a low energy medical cyclotron. After exposing the ARTMS yttrium-89 solid target to low activity radiation for 60 minutes, production yielded over 40 millicuries of 89Zr. The QUANTM Irradiation System (QISTM) from ARTMS enables commercial nuclear pharmacies to manufacture 89Zr locally, reducing dependency on isotopes produced centrally.
• On 15 October, 2020, Advanced Metallurgical Solutions (ASM) achieved a significant milestone by manufacturing 8.6 kg of high-purity zirconium metal powder in Korea. This zirconium powder is of high grade, with an assay of 98% zirconium and 1.5% hafnium. Significantly, it fulfilled the Korean Atomic Energy Research Institute's stringent standards, signifying its suitability for use in wide range of applications, including those within the nuclear industry.
