This product is a liquid mercury metal sealed in an ampoule for vacuum evaporation. Handling requires specialized low-temperature source and cold trap setup to prevent mercury vapor release.
- Sealed Ampoule Containment: The mercury is supplied in a sealed ampoule to prevent leakage and vapor exposure during storage and handling.
- Low-Temperature Evaporation Requirement: Evaporation must be performed using a dedicated sealed low-temperature source to avoid uncontrolled mercury vaporization.
- Cold Trap Setup Necessity: A cold trap setup is required to condense and capture mercury vapor, preventing contamination of the vacuum system and environment.
- Safety Data Sheet Review: Review the safety data sheet for mercury toxicity, first aid measures, and spill response procedures before handling.
- Export and Shipment Conditions: Verify export restrictions and shipment conditions due to mercury's hazardous classification before procurement.
Why is mercury evaporation material supplied in sealed ampoules and why does it require a dedicated low‑temperature source with cold trap setup?
Mercury is a liquid metal at room temperature (melting point −39 °C, density 13.55 g/cm³) and highly toxic, requiring containment in a sealed ampoule to prevent exposure and uncontrolled evaporation. The product explicitly specifies that evaporation must be performed using a dedicated sealed low‑temperature source / cold trap setup under RFQ‑only special low‑temperature vacuum evaporation conditions to control vapor release and protect equipment.
What deposition source hardware is required for evaporating mercury from a sealed ampoule?
The product requires a dedicated sealed low‑temperature source / cold trap setup for evaporation, with the method listed as special low‑temperature vacuum evaporation available only by RFQ. This is not a standard thermal evaporation source; buyers must confirm deposition source geometry, compatibility, and quantity requirements before quotation.
What safety and documentation requirements are associated with mercury evaporation material procurement?
The product description notes that documentation review includes certificate of analysis, safety data sheet, shipment conditions, and export requirements, all of which should be reviewed against laboratory use requirements. As a liquid metal with high toxicity, the sealed ampoule form and dedicated low‑temperature source with cold trap are essential for safe handling and operation.
This Mercury evaporation material is supplied as a 99.99% pure liquid metal in a sealed ampoule, requiring dedicated low-temperature vacuum evaporation with a cold trap setup due to its -39°C melting point and high toxicity.
Positive
- High-purity 99.99% liquid metal: The 99.99% purity specification ensures minimal contamination in thin-film deposition, supporting reproducible film properties for research applications.
- Sealed ampoule for safe handling: The sealed ampoule packaging prevents oxidation and vapor release of the toxic liquid metal, enabling safer laboratory storage and transfer before deposition.
Trade-offs
- Requires low-temperature evaporation source: With a melting point of -39°C, the material is liquid at room temperature and necessitates a dedicated sealed low-temperature source with a cold trap, limiting compatibility with standard evaporation systems.
- RFQ-only process for evaporation: The special low-temperature vacuum evaporation method is available only by RFQ, requiring additional coordination and approval before procurement, which may delay deployment.
