General description

Iron (Fe) is a dense, malleable, andductile metal known for its strength and versatility. This product features agranular particle size of 10-40 mesh, a resistivity of 9.71 μΩ-cm at 20°C, anda density of 7.86 g/mL at 25 °C. Iron is widely utilized in various industrialapplications due to its excellent mechanical properties and abundance. Ourhigh-purity iron is characterized by an assay of >99.99% trace metals basis,ensuring exceptional quality and reliability for sensitive applications inelectronics, material science, and research. Heterogeneous Catalysts: Ironis used in various catalytic processes, including the Haber-Bosch process forammonia synthesis, where it serves as a catalyst.Batteries: Iron is used in some types of batteries, suchas iron-air batteries, which have potential for energy storage applications.
