High-purity zinc foil for zinc-ion batteries, film deposition and catalytic research
The Cell Lab 99.9% Zinc Metal Foil is a high-purity metallic substrate designed for advanced energy-storage and electrochemical applications. With exceptional conductivity, corrosion resistance and flexibility, it serves as an ideal anode material or reference electrode in aqueous zinc-ion batteries. It also performs effectively as a conductive substrate for lithium-ion batteries, supercapacitors, solar cells and thin-film deposition systems.
Supplied in standard rolls measuring 1400 × 100 mm with a 25 μm thickness, this foil can be customised to meet specific laboratory or industrial requirements. Its chemical stability and reproducibility make it widely cited in academic and industrial research for battery innovation, catalytic design and advanced material synthesis.
High Purity (≥99.9%) – Ensures consistent electrochemical behaviour and stable electrode performance.
Versatile Applications – Suitable for zinc-ion batteries, reference electrodes, supercapacitors and catalysis.
Excellent Conductivity – Supports efficient charge transfer in energy-storage and deposition processes.
Flexible and Durable – Mechanically stable for roll-to-roll, coating and thermal processing setups.
Customisable Dimensions – Available in various lengths and thicknesses for research and pilot-scale production.
