Description
Silicon dioxide is a high-purity oxide supplied in the ROTI®METIC grade at 99,998 % (4N₈), identified by CAS number 60676-86-0 and empirical formula SiO₂. With a molar mass of 60,09 g/mol and a density of 2,2 g/cm³, it is suited to advanced materials work, optics, electronics, and analytical applications that demand tightly controlled impurity levels. offers a practical quantity for laboratory synthesis, surface studies, thin-film or sol-gel routes, and reference-material preparation. Available from manufacturer Carl ROTH within the ROTI®METIC range, this SiO₂ grade gives researchers a well-characterised silica source for R&D and process trials. Common uses include ceramic and glass formulation studies, dielectric or barrier layer development, and high-purity feedstock for specialty silica chemistry. EG number 262-373-8 supports regulatory and inventory identification. Apply appropriate laboratory handling for fine powders and review the safety data sheet before use in experimental or production-support workflows.

Questions about Silicon dioxide, ROTI®METIC 99,998 % (4N8), 5 g, plastic
What is this article?
Silicon dioxide, ROTI®METIC 99,998 % (4N8), 5 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.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Inorganic chemicals. The sub-category is Metals, elements & oxides. The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
Shelves beside this one are Inorganic salts and Nanomaterials & quantum dots.
What should I check before I order?
The technical information on this page is the manufacturer's sheet. Read that, not a rewritten specification.
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
