1.4 mm Acid Washed Zirconium Beads
Zirconium beads are more dense than silica, yet less expensive than stainless steel. 1.4 mm Zirconium Beads are suitable for homogenizing soft tissues, insects, and leaf material.
Beads are ready-to-use, having been treated with acidified water to remove fine particles, dust, and other impurities typically found in untreated beads, and further baked to drive off organic impurities.
