Yttrium Metal

Yttrium metal is a silver white metal with the element symbol Y, and it was the first rare earth metal element discovered.
Availability:
Quantity:

A block of pure yttrium metal will form a protective oxide layer (Y2O3) on its surface in air, and this "passivation" process makes it relatively stable.

Application

Yttrium metal has a wide range of applications, mainly including the following aspects:

Electronic devices: Yttrium metal has important applications in electronic devices, especially in thin film deposition and microelectronics manufacturing. Yttrium target materials have become an ideal choice for preparing various thin film materials due to their high purity, good stability, and specific physical and chemical properties.

High temperature ceramics: Yttrium has high temperature stability and is therefore used to manufacture high-temperature ceramics. In addition, yttrium metal can also be used as an additive for other materials to enhance their performance.

Medical imaging: Yttrium metal is also used in medical imaging, such as for manufacturing key components in medical equipment.

Catalyst: Yttrium metal can act as a catalyst to promote chemical reactions.

Alloy: Yttrium metal can be used to manufacture special alloys, enhancing their high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance.
