Description
Aluminium wool is a coarse metallic fibre material of approximately 99 % purity, identified by CAS number 7429-90-5 and the empirical formula Al. With a molar mass of 26,98 g/mol and a density of 2,7 g/cm³, this elemental aluminium form offers a high surface-to-mass ratio suited to laboratory packing, filtration support, and heat-transfer or scavenging applications where a loose metallic matrix is required. The boiling point is given as 2500 °C, reflecting the thermal stability of the metal under standard conditions. This aluminium wool from manufacturer Carl ROTH is specified with EG number 231-072-3 and is positioned for general chemical and materials work rather than specialised high-purity electronics grades. Users can select it wherever a readily handled aluminium fibre is needed for physical packing, reaction support, or related laboratory procedures that benefit from the conductivity and reactivity profile of aluminium metal in wool form.

Questions about Aluminium wool, approx. 99 %, coarse, 100 g, plastic
What is this article?
Aluminium wool, approx. 99 %, coarse, 100 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Metals, elements & oxides, inside Inorganic chemicals, in Lab chemicals.
Metals, elements and oxides are the element itself or its oxide, sold as powder, shot, foil or wire. Purity and particle size are both the specification. A 99 percent powder and a 99.999 percent shot of the same element are different articles. Many are reactive to air or to water.
An inorganic chemical is a salt, an acid or base in solid form, a metal, an oxide, or an element. The waters of hydration are part of the formula: a hydrate and an anhydrous salt are different masses for the same ion. Trace metals matter when the salt will be used in analysis. Nanomaterials add particle size to the specification. Look the substance up on PubChem. Hazard classes are on ECHA, under the CLP Regulation and REACH. Transport of the dangerous ones is explained by the UNECE.
