Product Name – Aluminum foil, 0.2mm (0.008in) thick, annealed, Puratronic™, 99.9995% (metals basis) Quantity/Pack Size – 100x500mm, 100x100mm Form – Foil Grade – Puratronic™, 99.9995% (metals basis) Application – High-purity lab applications, contamination-sensitive experiments

Product Overview

This Puratronic™ 99.9995% aluminum foil is engineered for laboratories demanding ultra-high purity and consistency. The 0.2mm (0.008in) thickness ensures durability while maintaining flexibility for precise handling. Annealed for enhanced malleability, this foil eliminates internal stresses that could compromise experimental integrity. The 99.9995% metals basis purity guarantees minimal trace element contamination, making it ideal for applications where even minute impurities could skew results. The foil’s uniform surface finish prevents irregularities that might interfere with sensitive measurements or reactions. Available in 100x500mm and 100x100mm sizes, it accommodates both small-scale testing and larger experimental setups. The material’s high thermal conductivity and corrosion resistance further extend its utility across diverse laboratory protocols. Each sheet undergoes rigorous quality control to ensure consistent thickness and purity throughout the entire surface area.

FAQs

1. What is the significance of the 99.9995% purity level in this aluminum foil?

The 99.9995% purity means there are only 0.0005% trace elements present, which is critical for experiments where even micro-level contamination could affect outcomes. This level of purity ensures reliable, reproducible results in sensitive applications.

2. How does the annealing process benefit this aluminum foil?

Annealing removes internal stresses in the metal, making the foil more malleable and easier to work with without cracking. It also improves the foil’s uniformity, which is essential for consistent experimental conditions.

3. Can this foil be used for applications requiring electrical conductivity?

Yes, the high purity and uniform composition make this aluminum foil an excellent conductor. The 0.2mm thickness provides sufficient material for stable electrical connections while maintaining flexibility.

4. What precautions should be taken when handling this high-purity foil?

Always use clean, powder-free gloves to prevent contamination from skin oils. Store in a dry, dust-free environment and avoid touching the working surface directly to maintain its purity.

5. How does this compare to standard laboratory-grade aluminum foil?

Standard lab foil typically has 99.5-99.9% purity, while this Puratronic™ grade offers 99.9995% purity. The higher purity eliminates potential interference from trace elements, making it superior for high-sensitivity applications.
