About Indium Honeycomb

High purity germanium honeycombIndium Honeycomb is used in numerous engineering and scientific applications in industry for both porosity and strength. Honeycombs are most often an array of hollow hexagonal cells with thin vertical walls. Sheets of metal can be placed on the top and bottom of the honeycomb to create a strong flat surface. Indium Honeycomb is low density permeable material with numerous applications. The defining characteristic of this honeycomb is a very high porosity, typically 75-95% of the volume consists of void spaces. Metallic Honeycomb has found a wide variety of applications in heat exchangers, energy absorption, flow diffusion and lightweight optics. Ceramic Honeycomb is often used for thermal insulation, acoustic insulation, adsorption of environmental pollutants, filtration of molten metal alloys, and as substrate for catalysts requiring large internal surface area. The geometric structure of tin honeycomb allows for the minimization of material used thus lowering weight and cost. The honeycomb pattern has a high strength-to-weight ratio. Indium Honeycomb is generally immediately available in most volumes. Additional technical, research and safety (MSDS) information is available.

The number of electrons in each of indium's shells is [2, 8, 18, 18, 3] and its electron configuration is [Kr] 4d10 5s2 5p1. The indium atom has a radius of 162.6 pm and a Van der Waals radius of 193 pm. Indium was discovered by Ferdinand Reich and Hieronymous Theodor Richter in 1863. Indium Bohr ModelIt is a relatively rare, extremely soft metal is a lustrous silvery gray and is both malleable and easily fusible. It has similar chemical properties to Elemental Indiumgallium such as a low melting point and the ability to wet glass. Fields such as optics and microelectronics that utilize semiconductor technology have wide uses for indium, especially in the form of Indiun Tin Oxide (ITO). Thin films of Copper Indium Gallium Selenide (CIGS) are used in high-performing solar cells. Indium's name is derived from the Latin word indicum, meaning violet.
