General description
Trimethylaluminum (TMA) is a widely used precursor in the chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process to produce thin films in various applications. TMA is highly reactive and pyrophoric, which makes it an effective source of aluminum in thin film deposition processes to improve optoelectronic properties, such as enhanced light absorption and carrier transport characteristics.
Application
Trimethylaluminum can be used:
- As a growth initiator to synthesize self-assembled aluminum nanoparticles via atomic layer deposition.
- As a precursor to synthesize aluminum-doped ZnO thin films(AZO) for electron transport layer of perovskite solar cells. TMA enhances electrical conductivity and thermal stability of perovskite layers.
- To fabricate Al2O3-coated Si-alloy anodes for Li-ion batteries. This coating helps to suppress the volume expansion of Si and improves cell stability.
- To fabricate Al2O3-coated graphite electrode with superior anti-self-discharging behavior (260 h) with long stability (900 cycles), for Al-ion battery.
Packaging
Supplied in a Sure/Pac™ cylinder with a 1/4-turn bronze ball valve (Z122661) installed. This has a female 1/4"" NPT outlet thread and is closed with a male 1/4"" NPT carbon steel plug. The plug must be removed before use after ensuring the valve is in the closed position.
Compatible with the following:
Compatible with the following:
- Aldrich® Sure/Pac™ station for liquefied gases Z566446
- PTFE Sealing tape Z104388 or Z221880
- Straight septum-inlet adapter Z118141 with septa Z565687 or Z565695
Other Notes
Storage below 20°C may cause crystallization.

How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?
1 answer-
If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.

How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?
1 answer-
Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
