I-Zirconium: I-Zirconium iyisici samakhemikhali uphawu lwaso lwamakhemikhali luyi-Zr. Inombolo yayo ye-athomu ingu-40. Iyinsimbi encibilikayo ephakeme esiliva-mhlophe enombala ompunga okhanyayo. Ukuminyana kungu-6.49 g/cm 3. Iphuzu lokuncibilika liyi-1852 ± 2 ° C, indawo yokubilisa ingu-4377 ° C. I-valence ingu-+2, +3 no-+4. Amandla okuqala e-ionization angu-6.84 eV. Ubuso be-zirconium kulula ukwenza ifilimu ye-oxide ene-luster, ngakho ukubukeka kufana nensimbi. Iyamelana nokugqwala futhi inyibilika ku-hydrofluoric acid ne-aqua regia. Ihlangana nezinto ezingezona ezensimbi kanye nezinto eziningi zensimbi emazingeni okushisa aphezulu ukwenza izinhlanganisela zesisombululo esiqinile. ukusetshenziswa kwe-zirconium: impahla yamandla enuzi, ukumelana nokugqwala okuhle kakhulu, indawo ephezulu yokuncibilika, amandla aphezulu nobulukhuni, ukuziphatha okuphezulu emazingeni okushisa aphansi.
