Atomic number: 63, belongs to the lanthanide series elements
Appearance: Pure europium metal particles are silver-white with metallic luster.
Density: the relative density is about 5.24g/cm³, which is relatively small among rare earth elements.
Melting point: the melting point is about 822℃, relatively low.
Hardness: Mohs hardness is usually 5.5-6.5.
Conductivity: Good electrical conductivity.
Optical materials: Europium metal europium ions have unique luminescent properties in the visible wavelength range, with sharp f-f electron-leap line-like bands in their emission spectra, capable of emitting high purity colour light.
Atomic energy industry: Since europium atoms can absorb more neutrons than any other elements, it is commonly used in atomic reactors as neutron absorbing materials, and can also be used in the manufacture of reactor control materials and neutron protection materials.
Other fields: It also has certain applications in organic optical materials and biomedical fields, for example, it has potential applications in bio-imaging and cell labelling. However, its biomedical applications are still in the research stage.
VI HALBLEITERMATERIAL GmbH (VIMATERIAL) employs a stringent quality assurance system to ensure the reliability of our product quality. Strict quality control is implemented throughout the entire production chain, and for defective products, we strictly enforce the principle of rework and redo. Each batch is released only after passing detailed specification tests.
Every batch of our materials is independently tested, and, if necessary, we send samples to certified companies for testing. We provide these documents and analysis certificates with the shipment to certify that our products meet the required standards.
