Description
Aluminum (Al) Nanopowder / Nanoparticles – 99.9%, 40 nm, Metal Basis
Aluminum (Al) Nanopowder features a high purity of ≥99.9% (metal basis) and an average particle size of 40 nm, making it ideal for high-performance applications. Produced through an electrical explosion method, this spherical, dark grey nanopowder contains a minimal oxygen level, enhancing its reactivity and stability for research and industrial use.
The distribution is as follows: 50 wt% of the particles are precisely 40 nm, 25 wt% are below 40 nm, and 25 wt% are above 40 nm (with only 1 wt% reaching up to 80 nm). Its high specific surface area (30–50 m²/g) ensures excellent dispersion and activity in composite formulations.
