- Pure Aluminum 99.999x%
- Aluminum Ingot / Ultra-Pure Aluminum 99.999x%
- Aluminum Ingot
- Pure aluminum, a silvery-white metal, has many desirable properties. It is lightweight, non-magnetic, and non-sparking. Among all metals, it ranks second in malleability and sixth in ductility.
- Melting point: 660.32 °C
- Boiling point: 2519 °C
- The ingot is a cast bar, usually rectangular or round in shape.
- The critical difference
- One kilogram of aluminum with 99.85 % purity costs around €35.00/kg today (07.2019). This is a commercially available aluminum traded on exchanges.
- One kilogram of ultra-pure aluminum with 99.999 % purity, during the same period, is valued at approximately €280.00/kg.
- In chemistry, it is always the final nuances that enable or disable a process. That is the defining difference in so-called ultra-high-purity materials.
