Zinc Shots

Formula: Zn

Form: Pellet/Lump

Material: Zinc

CAS Number: 7440-66-6

Commodity: Metals

Goodfellow now offers zinc Shots as part of its range of pellets. Zinc is a bluish-white metallic element with moderate strength and corrosion resistance. The zinc pellets exhibit properties such as a melting point of 419°C and density of 7.14 g/cm3. Potential applications for zinc pellets include use as a coating to protect steel against corrosion and as an alloying agent in brass. With their convenient pellet form, these zinc additions from Goodfellow enable customizable zinc incorporation across industrial and research settings.
