Holmium Metal

Product Detail

Brief information of Holmium Metal Formula: Ho CAS No.: 7440-60-0 Molecular Weight: 164.93 Density: 8.795 gm/cc Melting point: 1474 °C Appearance: Silvery grey lump piwces, ingot, rods or wires Stability: Moderately reactive in air Ductibility: Good Multilingual: HolmiumMetall, Metal De Holmium, Metal Del Holmio Application of Holmium Metal: Holmium Metal, is mainly metallurgical uses. Added to vanadium, for example, Erbium lowers hardness and improves workability. There are also a few applications for nuclear industry. Erbium Metal can be further processed to various shapes of ingots, pieces, wires, foils, slabs, rods, discs and powder. Specification of Holmium Metal:
