Product Overview
Nickel(II) oxide in Puratronic™ grade delivers exceptional 99.998% purity (metals basis), ensuring ultra-low trace metal contamination for critical applications. This high-purity nickel oxide is synthesized under stringent conditions to maintain consistency in particle size distribution and phase stability. Its fine powder form enables uniform dispersion in composite materials, thin-film deposition, and catalytic formulations. The material’s stoichiometric composition and minimal impurities make it particularly suitable for advanced research requiring precise chemical behavior. With negligible levels of alkali, alkaline earth, and transition metal contaminants, this grade meets the demands of semiconductor fabrication, high-performance ceramics, and specialized chemical synthesis. The product is packaged under inert conditions to prevent oxidation and moisture absorption, preserving its reactivity and shelf life. Its thermal stability and resistance to reduction under controlled conditions further enhance its versatility in high-temperature applications.
FAQs
1. What is the difference between Puratronic™ and standard-grade nickel oxide?
Puratronic™ grade nickel oxide undergoes additional purification steps to achieve 99.998% metals basis purity, significantly reducing trace impurities like iron, copper, and sodium compared to standard grades.
2. Can this nickel oxide be used for thin-film deposition?
Yes, its fine particle size and high purity make it suitable for physical vapor deposition (PVD) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD) processes in thin-film applications.
3. How should this product be stored to maintain its purity?
Store in a tightly sealed container under inert gas (argon/nitrogen) in a cool, dry place to prevent moisture absorption and oxidation.
4. Is this nickel oxide compatible with acidic or alkaline solutions?
It exhibits limited solubility in dilute acids but dissolves in strong mineral acids; avoid prolonged exposure to alkaline solutions to prevent hydrolysis.
5. What alternatives exist for applications requiring lower purity?
Standard-grade nickel oxide (99.5-99.9%) or reagent-grade options are cost-effective alternatives for less demanding applications.
