Lycopodium Powder – 25g (LR Grade)

Lycopodium is a fine natural powder supplied in a 25g container for controlled use in educational science laboratories. Provided in Laboratory Reagent (LR) grade, it is commonly used for classroom demonstrations and practical observations where a lightweight, finely divided solid is required.

Identified by CAS No. 8023‑70‑9 and UN Number 1325, Lycopodium powder is clearly labelled to support safe handling, storage, and regulatory compliance within school settings. Its very fine particle size makes it particularly useful for illustrating scientific principles related to surface area and particle behaviour.

Please note: this product is supplied exclusively to educational establishments and will only be shipped to verified school addresses. Due to courier and safety regulations, this item is non‑returnable; however, this does not affect your statutory rights.
