Product Overview
This ultra-pure 99.9999% copper foil is engineered for precision applications requiring exceptional conductivity and minimal impurities. With a 0.5mm (0.02in) thickness, it provides a robust yet flexible substrate for demanding laboratory environments. The Puratronic™ grade ensures trace metal impurities are reduced to parts-per-million levels, making it ideal for sensitive experiments where material purity is critical. The foil maintains consistent thickness across its surface, eliminating variability in performance. Its high-density structure offers superior thermal and electrical conductivity compared to standard copper foils. The material undergoes rigorous quality control to guarantee uniformity in composition and physical properties. Available in 100x100mm and 50x50mm sizes, this foil adapts to various experimental setups while maintaining its high-purity characteristics. The surface finish is optimized for clean handling and minimal oxidation during storage.
FAQs
1. What is the maximum operating temperature for this copper foil?
This 99.9999% pure copper foil maintains structural integrity up to 200°C under normal atmospheric conditions, though prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures may affect surface properties.
2. Can this foil be cut into smaller pieces without affecting its properties?
Standard laboratory shears or precision cutting tools can be used to divide the foil, provided the cutting edges are clean and free from contaminants that might transfer to the copper surface.
3. How does the Puratronic™ grade differ from standard copper foil?
The Puratronic™ designation indicates a metals basis purity of 99.9999%, with significantly lower trace element contamination compared to commercial-grade copper foils which typically range between 99.9% and 99.99% purity.
4. What precautions should be taken during storage to maintain purity?
Store in a dry, inert atmosphere environment with minimal exposure to sulfur compounds or moisture. Original packaging should be resealed when not in use to prevent surface oxidation.
5. Is this foil compatible with standard laboratory adhesives?
Most epoxy-based and acrylic laboratory adhesives bond well with this copper foil, though surface cleaning with isopropyl alcohol is recommended prior to application for optimal adhesion.
