Description

Dysprosium Oxide is a high-purity rare earth compound essential for advanced materials and electronics. This material is critical for applications requiring specific magnetic, optical, and thermal properties. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the permanent magnet, nuclear reactor control, and specialty glass industries.

Application

• Permanent Magnets: A key dopant in neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) magnets to improve coercivity and thermal stability for electric vehicles and wind turbines.
• Nuclear Industry: Used in control rods and shielding materials due to its high neutron absorption cross-section.
• Specialty Glass & Ceramics: Imparts specific optical properties and enhances the durability of laser host materials and other advanced ceramics.
• Phosphors & Lighting: Acts as an activator in phosphors for specialized lighting and display applications.
• Chemical Research: Serves as a catalyst or precursor in various chemical synthesis and material science research.
• Data Storage: A component in magneto-optical recording media.

Quality Control

Our Dysprosium Oxide is manufactured under stringent quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analysis to ensure it meets high-purity specifications, typically ranging from 99.9% to 99.999% (REO basis). A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, trace metal impurities, and physical characteristics is provided with every shipment to guarantee consistency and compliance with your technical requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the material should be stored in a cool, dry place, ideally under controlled humidity conditions. For long-term storage, a desiccated environment is recommended to prevent moisture absorption and caking.
