Aluminium

What is Aluminum?

Aluminium is a light, durable and silver-white metal. Because of its reactivity and conductive properties, aluminium is often used in chemical reactions and experiments.

Shapes of Aluminium

We offer aluminium in the following specific forms for chemical applications:

• Granules: This shape is ideal for certain reactions where a standardized size and shape are important.
• Powder: Powdered aluminum is often used in exothermic reactions and as a reducing agent in certain chemical processes.

Chemical Applications of Aluminum

Due to its unique properties, aluminum is sought after in chemical processes, including:

• As a reducing agent in organic and inorganic synthesis.
• For producing hydrogen gas in reaction with acids.
• As a component in certain pyrotechnic mixtures.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

• How should I store aluminum safely? Store in a dry place. The powder form in particular should be kept away from sources of ignition.
• Can Aluminum react with water? Yes, aluminum can react with water to produce hydrogen gas, although the reaction can be slow depending on conditions.
