Product Code : SE-Cd-7N-CU
Cadmium is a soft, malleable, bluish-white metal, chemically similar to zinc and mercury. It is soft enough to be cut with a knife and resistant to corrosion. It is readily accessible as it occurs in concentrated ores and is easily extracted by heating the oxide with carbon and distilling the metal. It has an abundance in the earth's crust of 0.11 ppm. Cadmium forms various compounds. For example, cadmium sulfide (CdS) is used as a photoconductive surface coating for photocopier drums and as a yellow pigment. Cadmium selenide (CdSe) can be used as red pigment, commonly called cadmium red. However, its high toxicity means that its use is now becoming increasingly restricted.
ATT is a professional supplier of high-purity Cadmium Metal. The purity can be 99.99%(4N), 99.995%(4N5), 99.999%(5N).99.99999%(7N) .Cadmium Metal is available as disc, granules, ingot, pellets, pieces, powder , rod, wire, sputtering target and in numerous other forms and custom shapes.

Packing of Cadmium Metal
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’ High Purity Cadmium Metal is carefully handled to minimize damage during storage and transportation and to preserve the quality of our products in their original condition.
