Quality Control

Our Iron Aluminide is produced under stringent process controls to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and high performance. Quality is verified through advanced analytical techniques including X-ray diffraction (XRD) for phase purity, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) for composition and morphology, and particle size analysis. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing lot-specific results is provided with each shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). The material is stable under normal conditions but should be kept away from strong acids and strong oxidizing agents. For long-term storage of fine powders, consider an inert atmosphere to minimize surface oxidation.
