Gadolinium Oxide Gd2O3

Product Detail

Brief information Product:Gadolinium Oxide Formula: Gd2O3 CAS No.: 12064-62-9 Purity:99.999%(5N), 99.99%(4N),99.9%(3N) (Gd2O3/REO) Molecular Weight: 362.50 Density: 7.407 g/cm3 Melting point: 2,420° C Appearance: White powder Solubility: Insoluble in water, moderately soluble in strong mineral acids Stability: Slightly hygroscopic Multilingual: GadoliniumOxid, Oxyde De Gadolinium, Oxido Del Gadolinio Application Gadolinium Oxide, also called Gadolinia, is used for making optical glass and Gadolinium Yttrium Garnets which have microwave applications. High purity of Gadolinium Oxide is used for making phosphors for colour TV tube. Cerium Oxide (in the form of Gadolinium doped ceria) creates an electrolyte with both high ionic conductivity and low operating temperatures that are optimal for cost-effective production of fuel cells. It is one of the most commonly available forms of the rare earth element Gadolinium, derivatives of which are potential contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging. Gadolinium Oxide is used for making gadolinium metal, gadolinium iron alloy, memory memory single substrate, optical glass, solid magnetic refrigerant, inhibitor, samarium cobalt magnet additive, x-ray intensifying screen, magnetic refrigerant, etc. In the glass industry, gadolinium oxide is specifically used as a component of high refractive index glass. When used together with lanthanum, gadolinium oxide helps to change the glass transition zone and improve the thermal stability of the glass. The nuclear industry is used for control rods of nuclear reactors, neutron absorbing materials in atomic reactors, magnetic bubble materials, intensifying screen materials, etc. Gadolinium oxide can also be used to manufacture capacitors, X-ray intensifying screens, and gadolinium gallium garnet materials. Batch Weight：1000,2000Kg. Packaging: In steel drum with inner double PVC bags containing 50Kg net each. 25kg/drums or 100kg/drums Gadolinium Oxide Store in a ventilated and dry place. Attention should be paid to moisture prevention to prevent package damage Note: Relative purity, rare earth impurities, non rare earth impurities and other indicators can be customized according to customer requirements Specification
