Why This Grade Matters
The Puratronic™ designation isn’t just about purity numbers—it represents a commitment to quality that researchers can trust. While standard laboratory grades might contain trace impurities that interfere with sensitive analyses, this 99.9995% pure aluminum chloride hexahydrate eliminates those variables.
For experiments where even parts-per-million contamination can skew results, this grade provides the clean baseline your research deserves. The hexahydrate form offers better handling characteristics compared to anhydrous versions, with improved stability during storage and dissolution.
Handling and Storage
Store in a cool, dry place away from moisture and incompatible substances. Always use appropriate personal protective equipment when handling. For long-term storage, keep containers tightly sealed to prevent hydration changes.
Safety Considerations
Risk Note: Aluminum chloride hexahydrate is corrosive and can cause severe skin and eye irritation. Handle with nitrile gloves, safety goggles, and in a well-ventilated area or fume hood. In case of contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical attention.
