What is Devarda's Alloy? It is a reducing agent primarily used in analytical chemistry to determine nitrates. It's a specific alloy of aluminium, copper, and zinc, typically in a ratio of roughly 45:50:5 by weight. It facilitates the reduction of nitrates to ammonia under alkaline conditions, allowing for their quantification. 

Consistent Quality: We source only high-quality Devarda's Alloy, ensuring consistent and reliable performance in both laboratory and industrial applications.

Shipped from Manchester, UK Facility: Sourced and packaged in secure, chemical-resistant containers to guarantee safe handling during transport.
