Material: Zinc
CAS Number: 7440-66-6
Commodity: Metals
Light Tight: Light Tight
Zinc Foil (Light Tight) is part of our range of light blocking foils and comes in 80 variations, with multiple thicknesses from 0.025mm to 0.5mm. This foil is made of 99.95% pure zinc and blocks visible light as well as UV radiation. Its key properties include corrosion resistance, ductility and thermal/electrical conductivity. Zinc Foil (Light Tight) is used in applications requiring a thin, opaque barrier such as blocking light for photosensitive materials, shielding in analytical instruments, and as a substrate in thin film deposition processes.
