1.Purity: 4N 5N gallium alloy2.Stable in the air and normal temperature 3. Gallium Indium Tin alloy proportion=Ga 68.5%, In 21.5%, Sn 10% 4. Non--polluting alloy material.
1. Galinstan may be used as thermal interface for computer hardware cooling solutions, though its cost and aggressivity (it corrodes many other metals such as aluminum by dissolving them) are major obstacles for widespread use. It is also electrically conductive, thus needs to be applied more carefully than insulating regular compounds.2. Also it has higher reflectivity and lower density than Liquid Hg; it is investigated as a replacement for mercury in liquid mirror telescopes for astronomy.
