Main group metals and metalloids form compounds with a wide range of uses, from water treatment and catalysis to semiconductors and optics. This sub-category covers salts, oxides and complexes of aluminium, tin, lead, bismuth, antimony, gallium and indium, together with silicon products such as Aerosil 200 fumed silica. Further examples include Aluminium acetylacetonate 99%, Aluminium acetate 99.9% and Aluminium ammonium sulphate in standard and GR grades.

Electronics users need gallium and indium compounds of very high purity, often 5N or 6N on a trace metals basis, for crystal growth and thin films. Catalyst chemists look for well-defined complexes such as metal acetylacetonates. Lead, antimony and arsenic compounds are toxic and regulated, so they carry handling and end-use requirements.

  • Acetylacetonates and alkoxides as soluble precursors
  • High-purity gallium and indium salts for electronics
  • Fumed silica for rheology control and fillers

Each lot ships with a COA and SDS in sealed packaging. Toxic items are declared and packed under dangerous-goods rules.

What is Aerosil 200 used for?
Aerosil 200 is a hydrophilic fumed silica with a surface area of about 200 m²/g. It thickens liquids, prevents settling and improves flow of powders. It is used in coatings, adhesives, sealants, cosmetics and pharmaceutical tablets. Handle it to avoid dust, as the fine particles become airborne easily.
Why use a metal acetylacetonate as a precursor?
Metal acetylacetonates are stable, well-defined and soluble in organic solvents, so they deliver a metal cleanly into solutions, sol-gel systems and vapour deposition processes. Aluminium acetylacetonate is used in catalyst preparation, coatings and oxide thin films. Its volatility suits chemical vapour deposition.
What purity of gallium or indium compound do electronics need?
Semiconductor and transparent conductor work usually needs 99.99% to 99.9999% purity on a trace metals basis, because tiny amounts of other metals change electrical properties. Specify the required purity and the elements of concern, and confirm them against the COA, which should list the measured impurity levels.
