Application:

Hafnium Rod-Bar is used as a control material in nuclear reactors. At present, almost all Marine water-cooled reactors use pure Hafnium atomic grade as control rods.

Hafnium can be used to control the recrystallization of tungsten filaments but its main application is as control rod material in nuclear reactors due to its ability to absorb neutrons. The ability of hafnium to absorb neutrons means that it can sometimes be an annoying impurity in zirconium metal which is used for nuclear engineering.
