Description

Samarium152 is a stable, non-radioactive isotope of the rare earth element samarium, identified by CAS NO 14280-32-1. This high-purity material is critical for applications requiring precise isotopic composition and exceptional chemical stability. It is an essential precursor and dopant material for research and industrial sectors focused on advanced materials science and nuclear technology.

Application

• Neutron Absorption and Shielding: Used in control rods, detectors, and shielding materials due to its high thermal neutron capture cross-section.
• Isotopic Tracer Studies: Serves as a stable isotopic tracer in geological, environmental, and metallurgical research.
• Advanced Material Dopant: Incorporated into ceramics, glasses, and semiconductors to modify electrical, magnetic, or optical properties.
• Nuclear Fuel Cycle Research: Employed in studies of nuclear fission yields and as a non-radioactive surrogate for other samarium isotopes.
• Calibration Standards: Used in the production of calibration standards for mass spectrometry and other analytical instrumentation.
• Catalysis Research: Investigated as a component in specialized catalysts for organic synthesis and petrochemical processes.

Quality Control

Our Samarium152 is produced and handled under stringent quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analysis to verify isotopic enrichment, chemical purity, and absence of radioactive contaminants. Certificates of Analysis (COA) are provided, detailing results from ICP-MS, GD-MS, and other relevant spectroscopic techniques to ensure compliance with customer specifications and industry standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its metallic nature and potential for surface oxidation, long-term storage under an inert atmosphere (e.g., argon) is recommended for optimal preservation.
