Activated Carbon / Carbon Powder
Activated Carbon / Carbon Powder
Activated carbon, also called activated charcoal, is highly porous, contributing to its very large surface area. Its surface is also very reactive. It is a very useful adsorbent used in many filter systems to purify, dechlorinate, deodorize, and decolorize both liquid and vapor applications. Activated carbon is usually derived from waste products such as coconut or wood, where bulk sources are converted into charcoal before being 'activated.' Activated carbon from coal is referred to as activated coal. Activated carbons are economical adsorbents for many industries and purposes. Different types of activated carbon are suited for various specialized applications, with grade and size-specific applications.

Vanadium (V) Metal
Vanadium (V) Metal
Vanadium is bright, silvery-white, soft, and ductile, and does not tarnish in the air nor is it affected by moisture at room temperature (above 660ºC, it readily oxidizes). The metal is very resistant to corrosion and has good structural strength.80% of the vanadium produced is used as a steel additive. Vanadium’s low neutron-absorbing properties make its alloys useful in nuclear reactors. Purity: 99.5%, 99.7%, and 99.9%
Ytterbium (Yb) Metal
Ytterbium (Yb) Metal

Ytterbium is used as a dopant to help improve the mechanical properties of stainless steel. It is also used as a doping material in specialty lasers. Other areas where Ytterbium is being used are memory devices and as an industrial catalyst to replace other catalysts considered too toxic and polluting due to its chemical racing ability.

Yttrium (Y) Metal
Yttrium (Y) Metal

Yttrium (Y) is a moderately soft, ductile, silvery rare earth metal. It is quite stable in the air and is reactive with most acids. Purity 99-99.9%

Zero-Valent Iron
Zero-Valent Iron

Zero-Valent Iron (ZVI / NZVI / EZVI) is a form of elemental iron that reduces inorganic ions in water because ZVI is fairly reactive in water and can serve as an excellent electron donor. Zero-valent iron (ZVI) has been successfully used for the degradation of a wide range of organic contaminants in groundwaters in recent years, including selenium (Se), arsenic (As), lead (Pb), and mercury (Hg), and many other pollutants. The rate of degradation of contaminants may be enhanced by the use of nanoscale zero-valent iron (nZVI) particles which possess higher surface area than the more widely used granular materials. nZVI can also be used to create Emulsified Zero-valent Iron for groundwater treatment.

Zinc (Zn) Metal
Zinc (Zn) Metal

Zinc is a bluish-white, lustrous metal with fair electrical conductivity. It is brittle at room temperature but malleable at 100 to 150ºC. Zinc is used predominantly as an alloy with other metals to galvanize them to prevent rusting. Various purities are available between 99.9% to 99.9999%.

Zirconium (Zr) Metal
Zirconium (Zr) Metal
Zirconium (Zr) Metal is a lustrous, gray-white, strong transition metal that resembles titanium and is very corrosion resistant. It is a highly flammable solid and a dust explosion hazard. Zirconium does not absorb neutrons, making it an ideal material for nuclear power stations, where more than 90% of zirconium is used.
