Product Overview: The document provides details on Ultra Pure Germanium Tetrachloride (GeCl4UP/0403).
Physical Data:
  • 1 kg of GeCl4 contains 0.3386 kg of Ge.
  • Density at 298 K is 1,874 kg/m3.
  • Molecular weight is 214.40 g/mol.
  • Boiling temperature is 83 °C.
Analysis of Metallic Impurities: The document lists detection limits for various metallic impurities, all ≤ 1 ppb, with total combined metallic impurities ≤ 10 ppb.
Hydrogen Bonds: Specified limits for O–H, C–H, and H–Cl bonds are ≤ 3 ppm, with typical values being much lower.
Formats and Packing:
  • Borosilicate glassware bottles available in 5 l, 10 l, or 27 l net volumes, packed in metallic drums.
  • Stainless steel containers available in 30 l, 60 l, 120 l, and 240 l net volumes, packed in DOT approved plywood boxes.
Handling Information: Germanium tetrachloride is corrosive, non-flammable, and fumes in humid air. It hydrolyses in water to form hydrogen chloride and germanium dioxide.
Additional Information: Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) is available upon request.
