Product Description
When your research demands the highest purity, this Puratronic™ copper slug delivers unmatched quality. With a 99.9999% metals basis purity, it’s engineered for applications where even trace impurities can compromise results. The precise 3.175mm diameter and length make it ideal for calibration, conductivity testing, or as a reference standard in material science labs.
Unlike standard copper samples, this slug undergoes rigorous purification to meet Puratronic™ standards, ensuring consistency batch after batch. Whether you’re working in electronics, metallurgy, or advanced physics, its uniform composition minimizes variability in experiments. Researchers trust it for ICP-MS, XRF, or semiconductor testing where ultra-low contamination is critical.
At eqipped, we understand that lab supplies aren’t just products—they’re the foundation of your work. That’s why we source only from trusted manufacturers like Thermofisher, so you can focus on breakthroughs, not supply chain worries.
Why This Copper Slug Stands Out
Not all copper is created equal. This slug’s 99.9999% purity eliminates background interference in sensitive analyses. The slug form offers better handling than powders or wires, reducing cross-contamination risks. Plus, the Puratronic™ certification guarantees traceability and lot-specific documentation—essential for GLP/GMP environments.
Students and educators will appreciate its reliability for teaching spectroscopy or material properties. For industrial R&D, it’s a cost-effective way to validate equipment performance without compromising on quality.
Applications in Real Labs
From academic projects to industrial quality control, this copper slug fits seamlessly into workflows like:
- Calibrating atomic absorption spectrometers (AAS)
- Developing copper-based nanoparticles
- Testing thermal and electrical conductivity
- Serving as a reference in alloy development

Handling and Storage
Store in a dry, inert atmosphere to prevent oxidation. Use clean tools to avoid surface contamination. For long-term storage, consider vacuum sealing or argon purging.
FAQs
What makes Puratronic™ copper different from regular copper?
Puratronic™ copper undergoes additional refining to achieve 99.9999% purity, removing trace metals like iron, nickel, and lead that could skew analytical results.
Can I use this slug for electrical conductivity tests?
Absolutely. Its high purity ensures consistent conductivity measurements, making it ideal for benchmarking or material characterization.
Is this product suitable for semiconductor research?
Yes, the ultra-low impurity levels make it a reliable standard for thin-film deposition or doping studies in semiconductor labs.
How should I clean the slug before use?
Rinse with acetone or isopropyl alcohol, followed by deionized water. Avoid abrasive cleaning to preserve the surface integrity.
Does eqipped offer certificates of analysis (CoA) for this product?
Yes, each batch includes a CoA with detailed purity data. Contact us if you need additional documentation for compliance.
