Product Overview

This Puratronic™ 99.997% aluminum foil is engineered for laboratories demanding ultra-low impurity levels and consistent performance. With a 0.2mm (0.008in) thickness, it balances flexibility and durability, making it suitable for applications where contamination control is critical. The high-purity composition ensures minimal trace element interference, while the uniform thickness guarantees reliable thermal and electrical conductivity. The foil’s smooth surface reduces particle generation, making it ideal for environments requiring clean handling. Available in 100x500mm and 100x100mm sizes, it adapts to various experimental setups without compromising integrity. The Puratronic™ grade certification confirms its suitability for analytical and research-grade applications where precision is non-negotiable. Its resistance to oxidation and chemical inertness further extends its utility in reactive or high-temperature conditions.

FAQs

1. What is the difference between Puratronic™ and standard aluminum foil?

Puratronic™ aluminum foil undergoes rigorous purification to achieve 99.997% metal basis purity, significantly reducing trace impurities like iron, silicon, and copper compared to standard foil. This makes it more reliable for sensitive lab work.

2. Can this foil be used for high-temperature applications?

Yes, the 0.2mm thickness and high-purity composition allow it to withstand temperatures up to 600°C without significant degradation, though prolonged exposure may affect surface properties.

3. Is this foil compatible with acidic or alkaline solutions?

While aluminum generally reacts with strong acids and bases, the Puratronic™ grade’s purity minimizes unintended side reactions, but it is not entirely inert. Pre-testing is recommended for specific chemical exposures.

4. How should this foil be stored to maintain its purity?

Store in a dry, sealed container away from moisture and corrosive vapors. Avoid direct contact with other metals to prevent galvanic reactions that could compromise its surface integrity.

5. Are there alternatives for applications requiring thinner or thicker foil?

For thinner requirements, 0.1mm or 0.05mm Puratronic™ foils are available, while thicker options like 0.3mm or 0.5mm can be sourced for structural applications. Contact support for customization.
