Product Code : ME-K-5N-WF
ATT produces potassium wafers at the highest possible density. Our standard wafer sizes are nominally 25.4 mm (1 inch) to 300 mm (11.8 inch). Materials are produced by ultra-high purification processes such as crystallization, solid state and sublimation. This process forms a cylindrical ingot, which is then sliced and polished to form a wafer. ATT specializes in the production of custom compositions for commercial and research applications as well as new proprietary technologies. ATT also casts any rare earth metal and most other advanced materials into bars, rods or plates, and other mechanical shapes, and in solution and organometrics through other processes such as nanoparticles. We can also offer a small range of single pieces and shots. We also produce potassium in rod, granular, powdered, flake, granular and wire form, as well as in the form of nanoparticles and compounds such as oxides.
ATT is a professional supplier of potassium wafers, and we also produce plates, balls, ingots, balls, flakes, powders, rods, wires, sputtering targets, and many other forms and custom shapes. Other shapes are available upon request.
Please contact us if you need customized services. We will contact you with the price and availability in 24 hours.

Applications of Potassium Wafer
It is also used in medicine, lethal injections, scientific applications, food processing, soaps, and as a sodium-free substitute for table salt for people concerned about the health effects of sodium. It is used as a supplement in animal feed to boost the potassium level in the feed.
Packing of Potassium Wafer
Standard Packing:
Typical bulk packaging includes palletized plastic 5 gallon/25 kg. pails, fiber and steel drums to 1 ton super sacks in full container (FCL) or truck load (T/L) quantities. Research and sample quantities and hygroscopic, oxidizing or other air sensitive materials may be packaged under argon or vacuum. Solutions are packaged in polypropylene, plastic or glass jars up to palletized 440 gallon liquid totes Special package is available on request.
ATTs’Potassium Wafer is carefully handled to minimize damage during storage and transportation and to preserve the quality of our products in their original condition.
