INDIUM (metal) INGOTS 99.9% AR - 10 gm

Description

0824A 00010 is referred as INDIUM (metal) INGOTS AR under Research Lab Fine Chem Industries catalogue. Indium has an atomic number of 49 and is a post-transition metal. It is very soft and malleable but has a higher melting point than metals like gallium and sodium. It is mainly used in the manufacturing industry and has similarity to gallium and thallium in terms of its chemistry. It is widely employed as a component in low -melting point metal alloys for applications like in soldiers and high-vacuum seals. Nowadays it is used in the semiconductor industry in the manufacture of indium tin oxide(ITO) as a transparent conductive coating on glass. ITO finds wide application in liquid crystal displays, solar devices and flexible electronics. It has no major biological role reported but is somewhat toxic when injected into the blood stream. Despite safety issues it is used in some dietary supplements for increasing absorption of nutrients, increasing energy and hormone production. Sometimes it is also used in the treatment of cancer.
