Usage

Description

Indium hydroxide (In(OH)3) is a white powder that is available in two morphologies: crystalline and fine powder. It is soluble in mineral acids but insoluble in water. The crystalline powder has cubic shaped crystals with a size range of 1 to 5 μm, while the fine powder has smaller primary particles (0.1 to 1.0 μm) with a range of shapes (spherical to elliptical). It is a yellow-white powder with a purity of 99.999%.
