Thermo Scientific™ Devarda’s Alloy is a granular, high-purity alloy consisting of aluminium (44–46%), zinc (4–6%), and copper (49–51%). It is primarily used as a reducing agent in analytical chemistry, particularly for the determination of nitrates, where it reduces nitrate ions to ammonia under alkaline conditions.
Key Features
- Granular alloy composed of Al, Cu, and Zn in a defined ratio.
- High-purity composition suitable for analytical and industrial use.
- Reliable reducing agent for nitrate determination.
- Packaged in safe laboratory-grade bottles (100 g, 500 g).
- Manufactured under stringent quality control standards.
