Cadmium is derived from zinc-lead copper ore. It has hard, corrosion-resistant properties and is used in a variety of industries, including batteries, dyes, metal coatings, plastic stabilizers, household alloys, and bearing alloys. Heeger Materials offers a selection of over 100 high-purity products, including metals, metal oxides, and metal salts, with 99.999% purity or higher. 

High-purity and ultra-high-purity Cadmium (Cd) materials are crucial components for the research, development, and production of advanced technologies that require optimum properties, performance, and quality.

Cadmium Metal Application

• Used in rechargeable nickel-cadmium (NiCd) batteries.
• Used as pigments in the production of vibrant colors in paints, plastics, ceramics, and textiles.
• Used as a protective coating on steel and other metals to prevent corrosion.
• Used in the manufacturing of various electrical and electronic components, such as connectors, switches, and semiconductors.
• Used as a neutron-absorbing material in control rods for nuclear reactors.
• Used as a semiconductor material in thin-film solar cells.
• Used for electroplating and coating applications to provide corrosion resistance and improve surface properties of various materials.

Cadmium Metal Packaging

Cadmium (Cd) is carefully packaged in carton boxes with foam protection to minimize damage during storage and transportation and to preserve the quality of our products in their original condition. The vacuum packing is 1kg/bag, 25kg/barrel, or based on specific requirements.
