General description

Iron (Fe) is a dense, malleable, andductile metal known for its strength and versatility. This product features agranular particle size of 10-40 mesh, a resistivity of 9.71 μΩ-cm at 20°C, anda density of 7.86 g/mL at 25 °C. Iron is widely utilized in various industrialapplications due to its excellent mechanical properties and abundance. Ourhigh-purity iron is characterized by an assay of >99.99% trace metals basis,ensuring exceptional quality and reliability for sensitive applications inelectronics, material science, and research. Heterogeneous Catalysts: Ironis used in various catalytic processes, including the Haber-Bosch process forammonia synthesis, where it serves as a catalyst.Batteries: Iron is used in some types of batteries, suchas iron-air batteries, which have potential for energy storage applications.

Application

  • Progress and perspectives on iron-based electrode materials for alkali metal-ion batteries: a critical review.: This review explores the recent advancements and future prospects of iron-based electrode materials in alkali metal-ion batteries, highlighting their potential for high energy density and sustainable energy storage solutions (Li et al., 2024).
  • Iron-Based Electrodes Meet Water-Based Preparation, Fluorine-Free Electrolyte and Binder: : This study examines the use of water-based preparation methods and fluorine-free electrolytes in the development of iron-based electrodes, proposing a more sustainable approach to lithium-ion battery production (Valvo et al., 2017).
