Cesium
chemical
element:
Cs
( solid )
High purity (99.99%) samples of the
element Cesium (sometimes spelled Caesium), atomic number 55.
ideal for element collectors of those conducting experiments/producing
compounds & alloys with pure Cesium metal. Cesium is one of the most reactive metals
known to man - it will ignite upon exposure to air or water. For protection, our Cesium samples are sealed in glass ampoules under Argon gas. As its melting temperature is only 83°F, it will become golden liquid on warm days or just by holding the vial in your hand for a short time.
Sealed glass ampules contain either 100 grams or 400 grams of pure Cesium metal (make choice below).
Cesium typically sells for about $80 per gram. Our 100 & 400 gram ampoules offer a tremendous discount.
Cannot be shipped by air and only available within USA. Requires an adult signature upon delivery.
Caution:
Use safety precautions
(wear eye protection and gloves) when working with Cesium metal.
Violently/explosively reacts with water and may spontaneously ignite on contact with air. Causes severe burns on contact with body tissue.
