Description
Chromium shot is a high-purity elemental chromium material supplied at a minimum of 99,95 % with a particle size range of 1–5 mm. The metal corresponds to CAS number 7440-47-3, empirical formula Cr, molar mass 52,00 g/mol, and EG number 231-157-5. Physical data include a density of 7,19 g/cm³ and a boiling point of 2672 °C, supporting use where well-characterised chromium metal is required. This from manufacturer Carl ROTH is suited to analytical sample preparation, materials research, and laboratory synthesis steps that call for chromium in shot form rather than powder. The defined size fraction of 1–5 mm facilitates controlled weighing and handling on the bench. With its documented purity, molar mass, and density, chromium shot provides a consistent metallic feedstock for workflows that depend on elemental chromium of known composition and thermal behaviour in chemical and materials laboratories.

Questions about Chromium shot, min. 99,95 %, 1-5 mm, 10 g, glass
What is this article?
Chromium shot, min. 99,95 %, 1-5 mm, 10 g, glass 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.
