Product Name – Chromium pieces, electrolytic, 6mm & down, Puratronic™, 99.997% (metals basis) Quantity/Pack Size – 100g, 25g Form – Pieces (6mm & down) Grade – Puratronic™ (99.997% metals basis) Application – High-precision laboratory use
Product Overview
This Puratronic™ grade chromium represents the pinnacle of metallic purity at 99.997% metals basis, produced through advanced electrolytic refining techniques that eliminate virtually all trace contaminants. The 6mm and smaller particle size configuration offers researchers both practical handling advantages and enhanced reactivity potential. Each production lot is analyzed using multiple spectroscopic techniques to verify composition, with certificates of analysis provided for quality assurance. The material’s exceptional purity makes it particularly suitable for applications where even minute impurities could compromise results. The electrolytic production method ensures consistent crystalline structure throughout each piece, while the careful packaging prevents atmospheric contamination during storage and transport. This chromium maintains its specified properties across a wide temperature range, making it versatile for various experimental setups.
FAQs
1. What certification comes with these chromium pieces?
Each package includes a certificate of analysis detailing the actual purity levels and trace element composition as measured by our quality control laboratories.
2. Can these pieces be cut or machined without affecting purity?
While machining is possible, we recommend using diamond or ceramic tools and maintaining clean conditions to preserve the high purity of the material.
3. What is the typical oxygen content in these chromium pieces?
The oxygen content is typically below 50 ppm in this Puratronic™ grade, contributing to its excellent corrosion resistance and stability.
4. Are there any restrictions on shipping this product?
This product is classified as non-hazardous for shipping purposes, though standard laboratory chemical handling precautions should be observed.
5. How should these chromium pieces be stored for long-term use?
For optimal preservation, store in the original packaging or a clean, dry inert atmosphere container away from reactive chemicals and moisture sources.
