 Zinc Metal Granular Extra Pure is high-purity metallic zinc in granular form, characterized by its bluish-white metallic luster and excellent reactivity with acids. It serves as a fundamental reagent and reducing agent in chemical laboratories, used for synthesis, redox reactions, and calibration purposes. The granular form provides high surface area for reactions and ease of handling. Its Extra Pure grade ensures minimal impurities, making it suitable for sensitive analytical and materials research applications. Proper storage away from moisture, acids, and oxidizers is critical to maintain its quality and safety.
