Neodymium Metal Nd CAS 7440-00-8 For NdFeB Permanent Magnet Materials

Neodymium metal (chemical symbol Nd) is one of the rare earth elements, located in the sixth period of the periodic table, group IIIB, atomic number 60. It is a silver-white metal with extremely high magnetic energy product and high permeability, and is a key material for the manufacture of strong permanent magnets, widely used in motors, generators, sound equipment and other fields.
In addition, neodymium metal is often used as a dopant in laser materials and plays an important role in laser cutting, laser marking and medical laser equipment. In the glass and ceramic industries, neodymium can give materials their unique color and optical effects. At the same time, the metal neodymium is also an additive for smelting iron ore, which can improve the performance and quality of iron.

Used

The largest user of metal Neodymium is NdFeB permanent magnet material. The appearance of NdFeB permanent magnet has injected new vitality into the high-tech field of rare earth. NdFeB magnet has a high magnetic energy accumulation, which is called the "king of permanent magnet" in modern times. It is widely used in electronic, mechanical and other industries for its excellent performance. Neodymium is also used in non-ferrous materials. Adding 1.5-2.5% neodymium to magnesium or aluminum alloy can improve the high temperature performance, air tightness and corrosion resistance of the alloy, which is widely used as aerospace materials.
