Product Overview
This Puratronic™ copper shot delivers exceptional purity at 99.999% (metals basis), ensuring minimal trace impurities that could compromise sensitive laboratory procedures. The 4-6mm (0.16-0.24in) granule size provides consistent surface area for uniform reactions, making it ideal for applications requiring precise metal standards. Manufactured under stringent quality controls, this copper shot maintains tight compositional tolerances, eliminating variability in experimental outcomes. Its high-density, low-oxygen content formulation prevents oxidation during storage, preserving its purity over extended periods. The shot form allows for easy handling and accurate weighing, while the Puratronic™ grade certification guarantees traceability and batch-to-batch consistency. This product meets rigorous ASTM and ISO standards for high-purity metals, making it a reliable choice for demanding laboratory environments where contamination control is critical.
FAQs
1. What is the typical shelf life of this Puratronic™ copper shot when stored properly?
When stored in its original packaging under dry, inert conditions, this copper shot maintains its 99.999% purity for at least 5 years from the date of manufacture.
2. Is this copper shot compatible with standard laboratory glassware and equipment?
The 4-6mm shot size is designed to work with most laboratory funnels, weighing boats, and reaction vessels without causing blockages or handling difficulties.
3. How does Puratronic™ grade differ from other copper purity grades available?
Puratronic™ represents the highest commercial purity level at 99.999%, with stricter controls on trace metallic and non-metallic impurities compared to standard ACS or reagent grades.
4. What precautions should be taken when handling this high-purity copper?
Use non-metallic tools to avoid contamination, store in a low-humidity environment, and minimize exposure to air during transfers to prevent surface oxidation.
5. Can this copper shot be used for creating custom alloys in laboratory settings?
Yes, its high purity and consistent composition make it suitable as a base material for preparing specialized copper alloys when combined with other high-purity metals.
