Product Overview
This Puratronic™ 99.995% iron foil offers exceptional purity with a 0.25mm (0.01in) thickness, making it suitable for demanding laboratory applications where trace impurities can compromise results. The foil is manufactured under stringent quality controls to ensure consistent composition and surface finish. Its high-purity grade minimizes contamination risks, while the uniform thickness provides reliable performance in experimental setups. The material’s inherent properties, including high thermal conductivity and magnetic characteristics, make it valuable for specialized research applications. Available in 50x50mm and 25x25mm sizes, this iron foil is packaged to prevent oxidation and maintain its pristine condition until use. The Puratronic™ certification guarantees traceability and adherence to international purity standards, ensuring reproducibility in critical experiments. Its versatility extends to various analytical techniques where metal purity is paramount.
FAQs
1. What is the significance of the 99.995% purity level in this iron foil?
The 99.995% purity level indicates that the foil contains only 50 parts per million of impurities, making it suitable for applications where trace elements could interfere with experimental results or material properties.
2. Can this iron foil be cut into smaller pieces without affecting its properties?
Yes, the foil can be carefully cut using appropriate tools like precision shears or laser cutters, though edge oxidation may occur if not handled properly in inert conditions.
3. How does the 0.25mm thickness compare to standard iron foils available in the market?
This 0.25mm thickness represents a balance between flexibility and rigidity, being thicker than most laboratory-grade foils (typically 0.1-0.2mm) but thinner than industrial sheets, offering better handling while maintaining structural integrity.
4. What precautions should be taken when storing this high-purity iron foil?
Store in a desiccator or sealed container with argon/nitrogen atmosphere to prevent oxidation, and avoid exposure to moisture or corrosive chemicals that could degrade the surface.
5. Is this Puratronic™ grade iron foil compatible with vacuum applications?
The high purity and low outgassing properties make it suitable for vacuum environments, though pre-cleaning may be required depending on the specific vacuum conditions and sensitivity requirements.
