Electrolytic Iron Powder could be considered as the purest form of iron and is derived from the chemical electrolysis of the solution contains various elements. Due to its high purity factor, it has become one of the most important elements for various industries. With so many applications of electrolytic iron powder in different industries, it is important that the iron powder being used is pure & as per customer specifications and application specific.
Obtaining purity of an iron:
The production of electrolytic iron powder is significant, and a great deal of chemical metallurgy is invested in controlling the attributes of the product. It is then deposited in the form of irregular yet brittle and friable chips on the cathode in the electrolytic bath and a large number of parameters have to be tightly controlled like pH, Density, temperature, etc.
Types of iron powder:
Based on the density, purity, and strength there are different types of electrolytic iron powders used for different purposes. The product range includes from 40 mesh,100 Mesh electrolytic iron powder, 200 Mesh, 325-Mesh Unannealed, 325-Annealed, 325-Mesh FCC grade, 400-Mesh Unannealed, 400-Mesh Annealed, 500-Mesh Annealed & Unannealed, Equiv carbonyl Iron Powder EC10TR, EC10, Electro-Diamond, and CM1 electrolytic iron powder. All these products have different density and purity to suit different needs of industries.
Importance of pure iron powder:
- Electrolytic iron has low heavy metals
- Electrolytic iron is the only pure (>99.5%) form of elemental iron available in the world.
- Electrolytic iron has better reactivity & importantly it helps customer to produce a highly pure end product.
All our products have a different purity, densities, particle size distribution & mechanical properties to suite different needs of different applications.
Conclusion:
The use of pure electrolytic iron powder is of paramount importance in each applicable industry. The purity of electrolytic iron powder is derived from grades in both the annealed and un-annealed condition with particle sizes ranging from 40 mesh to <5 microns.
The world is moving towards high purity in every metal, solution & formulations. IRON is one of them used widely in various industries and applications.
