Product Overview

Aluminum nitrate hydrate from eqipped is a Puratronic™ grade reagent with 99.999% purity (metals basis excluding mercury), designed for applications demanding ultra-low trace metal contamination. This high-purity crystalline solid is synthesized under stringent conditions to ensure minimal impurities, making it ideal for sensitive analytical techniques, advanced material synthesis, and specialized chemical processes. The hydrated form provides enhanced solubility in aqueous solutions while maintaining stability under standard lab conditions. Its low mercury content (<1 ppm) eliminates interference in trace metal analysis, ensuring reliable results in ICP-MS, AAS, and other high-precision instrumentation. The reagent is packaged in airtight containers to prevent moisture absorption and oxidation, preserving its integrity during storage. As a Puratronic™ product, it undergoes rigorous quality control, including ICP-OES and XRF analysis, to verify its ultra-high purity. This grade is particularly valued in research and industrial settings where reagent purity directly impacts experimental accuracy and product quality.

FAQs

1. What is the difference between Puratronic™ and standard aluminum nitrate hydrate?

The Puratronic™ grade offers 99.999% purity (metals basis excluding Hg) with ultra-low trace metal contamination, while standard grades typically range from 98-99% purity and may contain higher levels of impurities like iron, copper, or mercury that can interfere with sensitive analyses.

2. Can this product be used for preparing aluminum oxide nanoparticles?

Yes, the high purity of this aluminum nitrate hydrate makes it suitable as a precursor for synthesizing aluminum oxide nanoparticles, as it minimizes metallic impurities that could affect nanoparticle properties or catalytic performance.

3. How should this reagent be stored to maintain its purity?

Store in a tightly sealed container at room temperature (15-25°C) in a dry, well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight and incompatible substances like strong bases or reducing agents. Avoid exposure to humidity to prevent caking or hydrolysis.

4. Is this product compatible with HPLC or ion chromatography systems?

While primarily used in inorganic applications, its ultra-high purity makes it suitable for preparing mobile phases or standards in HPLC/ion chromatography when dissolved in appropriate solvents, provided the system is compatible with aluminum salts.

5. What alternatives are available if I need a lower purity grade for general lab use?

For less demanding applications, eqipped offers aluminum nitrate hydrate in ACS reagent grade (98% purity) or technical grade (95% purity), which are more cost-effective but may contain higher levels of trace metals.
