Gadolinium (Gd) Micron Powder

Purity: 99.5 %, Size: 325 mesh

Applications:

Gadolinium powder is relatively stable in dry air. It does however oxidize in moisture forming oxides. It can be found in minerals such as xenotime, monazite and bastnaesite. Gadolinium is a rare earth metal that possesses unique properties advantageous to specialized applications such as semiconductor fabrication and nuclear reactor shielding. Gadolinium has excellent magnetic properties. It is weakly magnetic at room temperature, but becomes strongly magnetic or ferromagnetic below room temperatures. Gadolinium powder has applications in electronics to increase the speed and capacity of computer memory. It has applications in medical magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) where it is used as intravenously administered, contrasting agents to enhance images. It also has applications as a dopant in glass.
