Product Description
When precision matters, this Puratronic™ lead foil delivers unmatched purity for critical lab applications. At 99.998% purity (metals basis), it’s engineered for experiments where even trace impurities can skew results. The 0.1mm thickness balances flexibility with effective shielding, making it ideal for X-ray diffraction studies, radiation protection, and analytical chemistry.
Unlike standard lead sheets, this foil undergoes rigorous purification to meet Puratronic™ standards, ensuring consistent performance in sensitive environments. Researchers and educators rely on it for reproducible data, whether in physics labs or materials science projects. The foil’s uniform thickness and smooth surface minimize interference, while its malleability allows easy cutting for custom setups.
For students and professionals alike, this lead foil simplifies complex experiments. Its high density provides superior attenuation for gamma rays and X-rays, while the ultra-pure composition prevents contamination in spectroscopic analyses. Whether you’re calibrating equipment or constructing shielding enclosures, this foil adapts to your needs without compromising integrity.

Beyond radiation applications, this foil serves as a reference material in metallurgical studies and corrosion testing. Its consistent composition makes it a benchmark for comparing lead alloys or evaluating protective coatings. Educators appreciate its role in demonstrating atomic structure principles or radiation physics concepts with real-world materials.
Every sheet arrives ready for immediate use, with dimensions tailored for common lab setups. The 100x100mm and 50x50mm sizes fit standard sample holders and experimental rigs, reducing preparation time. For long-term storage, the foil maintains stability under typical lab conditions, though we recommend handling with gloves to preserve surface purity.
FAQs
What makes Puratronic™ lead foil different from standard grades?
Puratronic™ undergoes additional purification steps to achieve 99.998% purity, eliminating trace metals that could interfere with sensitive analyses. This makes it ideal for research requiring ultra-low impurity levels.
Can this foil be cut to custom sizes?
Yes, the foil’s malleability allows easy cutting with scissors or a razor blade. For precise dimensions, use a metal ruler and wear gloves to prevent contamination.
Is this suitable for medical radiation shielding?
While effective for lab-scale shielding, medical applications require specialized certification. This foil is designed for analytical and research use only.
How should I store unused portions?
Store in a sealed container away from moisture and corrosive vapors. For long-term storage, place between acid-free paper to prevent surface oxidation.
