Sodium chloride meeting ASTM B117 requirements
Can anyone suggest sources for sodium chloride meeting the requirements set by ASTM B117? The common CP and AR reagents do not indicate that they meet the requirement of <0.3 ppm for Copper!

Ed. note: This RFQ is outdated, but technical replies are welcome, and readers are encouraged to post their own RFQs. But no public commercial suggestions please ( huh? why?).
Ed. note: Most plating process distributors will have this product. If difficulty in sourcing continues, please contact the firms shown in the banner above.
I suggest to analyse your AR salt for the level of Cu.
