Neodymium Metal Introduction
Neodymium Metal is a silvery-white, soft, and malleable rare earth metal that forms an oxide coating on the surface when in contact with air. Neodymium is useful in cryocoolers as it has a tremendous specific heat capacity at liquid helium temperatures. Neodymium magnets (actually an alloy, Nd2Fe14B) are the strongest permanent magnets known. Also, it is widely used as Neodymium doped lasers and Neodymium glass in other industries.
Neodymium Metal is mainly used to manufacture very powerful permanent magnets-Neodymium-Iron-Boron magnets and it is applied in making specialty superalloy and sputtering targets. Neodymium is also used in the electric motors of hybrid and electric automobiles and in the electricity generators of some designs of commercial wind turbines. Neodymium Metal can be further processed into various shapes of ingots, pieces, wires, foils, slabs, rods, discs, and powder.
Neodymium Metal Applications
Rare earth metal neodymium is mainly used to produce NdFeB magnetic materials, functional material additives, high-tech alloy additive materials, and electronic products.
