MetalsTek lists metallic indium powder in standard, spherical and nano-scale forms, as well as copper-indium alloy powder. These are distinct requirements. Specify composition, purity, particle size, morphology, quantity and packaging so we can review the appropriate product form.
Explore the Indium product family or read the indium powder selection guide.
Select the chemistry first, then the particle requirements. The forms below are listed separately in the existing MetalsTek catalog; no single purity or particle-size range applies to all of them.
Elemental indium powder. State the required purity, particle-size distribution or mesh specification, morphology and intended process. Availability is confirmed against the requested grade.
Spherical describes particle morphology; it does not define a purity or size grade. Request the target size distribution and the morphology evidence needed for your process.
Nanoscale describes a particle-size requirement. State the target size and test method, and flag any limits on agglomeration, surface oxidation, handling or packaging.
An alloy powder requires a specified Cu/In composition. Include composition limits, particle-size distribution, morphology, quantity and required batch documentation.
The catalog also lists indium oxide (In2O3), indium tin oxide (ITO) and indium nitride (InN) powders. These are different compounds, not grades of elemental indium powder. Specify the exact chemistry in a separate inquiry.
State elemental indium or the required alloy/compound composition, target purity and impurity limits.
Provide a mesh requirement or D10/D50/D90 limits, units and the requested measurement method.
State whether spherical particles are required and describe the intended manufacturing or research process.
Give order quantity, pack size, handling needs, destination and any requested inspection or batch records.
Earlier catalog entries gave different particle-size and purity figures for different powders. Confirm the current value for the specific grade and lot before relying on a numeric specification.
Projects may call for indium powder as an alloying or formulation feedstock, or for powder-processing research. Suitability depends on the composition, particle data and process conditions. For oxide, ITO or nitride work, request the corresponding compound rather than elemental indium powder.
If the process instead needs bulk metal or a finished deposition target, compare indium metal forms and indium sputtering targets.
MetalsTek can review a custom powder specification against the requested form and application. Final grade availability, particle distribution, morphology evidence, inspection records and packaging are confirmed for the individual inquiry; they are not uniform across all listed powders.
Provide destination and end-use information early. Applicable export requirements are reviewed for the specific product and shipment.
Standard indium powder identifies the elemental material without a fixed morphology. Spherical specifies shape; nano specifies a particle-size class. Neither term alone establishes a purity or size distribution.
Send the required mesh range or D10/D50/D90 limits, units and test method. If the process needs a particular morphology or controls on agglomeration, include those acceptance criteria.
No. Indium oxide and ITO are compounds with different chemistry. Identify the material and composition required by your process.
Provide the quantity, pack size, handling requirements, delivery destination and end use. The packaging and any applicable export documentation are reviewed for the quoted product.
In the inquiry form, enter “Indium Powder” in Product / Material and identify the exact form: standard, spherical, nano or copper-indium alloy. Add purity, particle-size distribution, morphology, quantity, packaging, destination and any requested documents.
