Calcium Monolithic Solid Wire

Electrolytic Calcium for Deoxidisation of Ferrous Steels

HTMS S.A. represents Chepetsky Mechanical Plant, Russia, subsidiary of Rosatom Group. Established in 1946, ChMZ produced uranium metal, depleted uranium, metallic calcium, and zirconium alloys for the various military and civilian applications. Today, the company fabricates fuel for TVEL and produces natural uranium fuel and other products from natural and depleted uranium. ChMZ has a complete production cycle for zirconium. It is the only such enterprise in Russia, and one of the largest enterprises in the world manufacturing zirconium and zirconium alloy goods for the nuclear industry.
