Product Description
When precision matters, this high-purity aluminum foil delivers unmatched performance for lab applications. With a 99.9995% metals basis purity and annealed for flexibility, it’s the go-to choice for researchers and educators who demand reliability. Whether you’re wrapping samples, creating barriers, or conducting sensitive experiments, this foil ensures minimal contamination and consistent results.
The 0.2mm thickness strikes the perfect balance between durability and ease of use, making it suitable for a wide range of scientific tasks. Its Puratronic™ grade guarantees ultra-low trace element levels, critical for analytical chemistry, materials science, and other high-stakes research.
Available in convenient sizes (100x500mm and 100x100mm), this foil fits seamlessly into standard lab workflows. At eqipped, we understand the needs of Indian researchers and students, which is why we source only the highest-quality materials to support your work.

Why This Aluminum Foil Stands Out
Not all aluminum foils are created equal. This Puratronic™ grade foil is engineered for labs where even trace impurities can skew results. The annealing process enhances malleability, so it conforms easily to irregular shapes without cracking. Unlike commercial-grade foils, it won’t introduce unwanted metals or residues into your samples.
Researchers in India trust this foil for applications like:
- Sample storage and transport
- Electron microscopy preparation
- Light-tight wrapping for photosensitive materials
- Thermal barrier experiments
Its consistency batch-to-batch means you can rely on reproducible outcomes, saving time and reducing experimental errors.
Handling and Storage Tips
To maintain the foil’s integrity, store it in a cool, dry place away from corrosive chemicals. Use clean gloves when handling to prevent oil or particulate contamination. For long-term storage, keep it in its original packaging or a sealed container to avoid oxidation.
When cutting, use ceramic or plastic tools to prevent metal-to-metal contact that could compromise purity. Always discard any foil that shows signs of creasing or tears, as these can harbor contaminants.
Common Lab Applications
This foil is a staple in Indian labs for:
- Wrapping X-ray diffraction samples
- Creating reflective surfaces for optical experiments
- Protecting sensitive equipment from dust
- Fabricating custom electrodes
Educators also use it in classroom demonstrations to teach concepts like thermal conductivity and material properties.
FAQs
Is this foil suitable for food contact?
No, this is a lab-grade product designed for scientific use only. It is not certified for food applications.
Can I use this foil in a vacuum environment?
Yes, its high purity makes it ideal for vacuum chambers, though outgassing should be tested for your specific setup.
What’s the difference between annealed and non-annealed foil?
Annealed foil is heat-treated to improve flexibility and reduce brittleness, making it easier to mold around samples.
How do I clean this foil before use?
Wipe with high-purity ethanol or acetone using a lint-free cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the surface.
Can I autoclave this foil?
While it can withstand autoclaving, repeated heat exposure may affect its mechanical properties. Test for your specific protocol.
