Chemical properties: chemical properties are more active, easy to be oxidized in the air, need to be sealed and preserved. Soluble in dilute acid, can react with hot water.
Application
Steel and non-ferrous alloys: as an additive to steel and non-ferrous alloys, it can enhance the oxidation resistance and ductility of stainless steel, improve the comprehensive performance of alloys, and increase the electrical conductivity of alloys, etc. For example, the addition of yttrium to Fecr alloys, MB26 alloys, Al-Zr alloys, and copper alloys can optimize the performance of the alloys.
In the field of electronics industry, yttrium metal is used in the manufacture of yttrium phosphor in the electronics industry, which produces red color in TV screens; it can also be used as functional materials such as X-ray filters; it is also an important material in the manufacture of thin film capacitors and fluorescent screens for electron microscopes.
Superconductivity: Yttrium metal is one of the important raw materials for the production of superconductors, such as yttrium-containing superconducting materials with zero resistance at low temperatures and completely antimagnetic properties, which can be used in the field of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), magnetic levitation trains and other fields.
Aerospace: Yttrium metal can be used in the manufacture of high-temperature parts for aerospace engines and as additives for aerospace structural materials, improving engine performance and the service life of structural parts by virtue of its high melting point and good high-temperature strength.
Scientific research: high-purity yttrium metal powder can be used as a base material in scientific research experiments to explore the properties and applications of new materials, for example, its potential applications in cutting-edge fields such as quantum materials and nanomaterials.
