This powder is regulated as an environmentally hazardous substance under UN3077 Class 9. Handling and transport must prevent environmental release and follow the batch-specific SDS and COA.
- Containment requirement: Keep the powder contained during handling and transport to prevent environmental release.
- Documentation requirement: Obtain and review the batch-specific SDS and COA before first use.
Handle this powder only after confirming the controls in the batch-specific SDS and COA. Contain the material to avoid environmental release throughout transfer and transport.
Required Equipment: Batch-specific SDS, Batch-specific COA
- Obtain documentation
Obtain the batch-specific SDS and COA from the manufacturer before handling. - Confirm transport requirements
Confirm the applicable UN3077 Class 9 Packing Group III requirements before moving the material. - Prevent environmental release
Contain the powder during handling and transport to prevent release to the environment.
What does the -20 mesh particle size mean for nickel silicide powder used in microelectronic contact research?
The -20 Mesh specification defines this Ni2Si powder as a coarse granular feedstock rather than a nanoscale or thin-film precursor. Researchers should confirm that their downstream milling, deposition, or device-integration process can accommodate this particle-size grade before fabricating microelectronic contacts or nanowire structures. The 99% purity is the key compositional control point for reproducible experiments.
Is this Ni2Si powder directly suitable for nickel-silicide/silicon nanowire field-effect transistor research?
Yes. Atomfair explicitly supplies this nickel silicide powder for research on microelectronic contact materials and nickel-silicide/silicon nanowire field-effect transistor devices. It is characterized as 99% pure Ni2Si with a molar mass of 145.473 g/mol, density of 7.40 g/cm³, and melting point of 1255 °C, providing the base material parameters needed for contact metallurgy and device integration studies.
What hazard classification and documentation apply to Atomfair nickel silicide powder shipments?
This product is classified as Hazard Class 9, UN3077, Packing Group PG III, so it must be handled and transported according to Class 9 dangerous goods requirements. Batch-specific COA and SDS documentation can be provided upon request to confirm purity, handling precautions, and regulatory compliance for the exact lot supplied.
Atomfair Nickel Silicide Powder (Ni₂Si) at 99% purity and -20 mesh delivers a defined Ni2Si phase with documented physical constants, supporting microelectronic contact and nickel-silicide/silicon nanowire FET research, although its coarse particle size and Class 9 environmental hazard classification require additional processing and controlled logistics.
Positive
- 99% purity with defined phase: Supplied as Ni2Si at 99% purity with a molar mass of 145.473 g/mol, giving researchers a well-defined nickel silicide composition for reproducible microelectronic contact studies.
- Targeted for device research: Explicitly positioned for research on microelectronic contact materials and nickel-silicide/silicon nanowire field-effect transistor devices, with COA and SDS available for batch-specific verification.
Trade-offs
- Class 9 environmental hazard constraints: Listed as UN3077, Packing Group III, the material is classified as an environmentally hazardous substance, imposing regulated packaging, labeling, and transport procedures for lab procurement and disposal.
- Coarse -20 mesh powder form: The -20 mesh specification corresponds to a relatively coarse powder (sub-850 µm), so researchers targeting thin-film or nanowire device structures must plan additional size reduction, deposition, or patterning steps before use.
