Ultra High-Purity Copper: Material Profile

Ultra high-purity zinc powder (5N / 6N) is a precision-engineered metallic material designed for the most demanding technological and scientific applications. Derived from natural zinc with controlled isotopic composition, the powder undergoes rigorous multi-stage refining to achieve purity levels of 99.999% (5N) and 99.9999% (6N), minimizing trace element interference and ensuring consistent performance.

Zinc, a Group 12 transition metal, has a melting point of 419.5 °C and a boiling point of 907 °C. In its ultra-high-purity powder form, zinc’s electrical, chemical, and nuclear properties become highly predictable and reproducible. This makes it essential where even sub-ppm impurities could affect system functionality, measurement accuracy, or material behavior.

Product Form and Handling

High-purity zinc powder typically features particles sized in the low micrometer range, with morphologies varying from near-spherical to dendritic. These physical characteristics influence powder flow, packing density, and reactivity during processing. The powder’s high surface area and chemical purity enable its use in sensitive applications including semiconductor manufacturing, specialty alloys, advanced coatings, and radiopharmaceutical precursors requiring exact isotopic control.

Given zinc powder’s sensitivity to oxidation and moisture, it is carefully packaged in hermetically sealed PET containers for smaller volumes and vacuum-tight glass vessels for bulk shipments. Such packaging preserves the powder’s purity and functional properties throughout storage, handling, and transport, ensuring reliable performance in high-precision industrial and scientific environments.

Applications of High-Purity Zinc Powder (5N–6N)

Ultra high-purity zinc powder, with purity levels of 99.999% (5N) and above, offers exceptional chemical stability and consistent isotopic composition, making it indispensable for advanced technological and scientific applications. Below are key sectors where this material plays a critical role:

  • High-End Coatings and Corrosion Science

    • Applied in protective coatings that prevent metal degradation, leveraging its purity to achieve consistent adhesion and barrier properties in harsh environments.
  • Energy Storage and Electrochemical Systems

    • Used in battery electrodes and electroplating baths to improve energy density, cycling stability, and corrosion resistance of zinc-based energy devices.
  • Semiconductor Processing and Thin-Film Deposition

    • Essential for vapor deposition and sputtering processes to create uniform zinc-containing layers in microelectronics, optoelectronics, and transparent conductive films.
  • Nuclear Science and Shielding Materials

    • Applied in radiation shielding alloys and neutron flux moderators, benefiting from its controlled purity to reduce secondary radioactive activation in nuclear reactors and detectors.
  • Radiopharmaceutical Precursor Materials

    • Used as precursor isotopes for medical radioisotope production. For example, Zn68 is activated in cyclotrons to produce Ga67, which is used in diagnostic imaging for infections and granulomatous diseases, while Zn66 serves as a starting material for radionuclides in diagnostic and therapeutic agents.
  • Catalyst Research and Advanced Materials Synthesis

    • Functions as a reactive substrate or dopant in catalytic formulations, enabling fine control over reaction kinetics and selectivity in chemical manufacturing and environmental technologies.
