How do I know whether technical grade is suitable for my process?

List the impurities that would affect your process or product, then compare them with the technical specification. If an important impurity is not listed, ask for lot data or a sample before committing to bulk.

Is technical grade cheaper in small packs?

Not necessarily. The saving comes from bulk packaging. For small quantities, LR or extra pure grade may cost about the same and come with a fuller specification.

Can technical grade be upgraded by the buyer?

Some buyers recrystallise or distil technical material in house. Whether that is worthwhile depends on yield, labour and the cost difference with a purer commercial grade.
