Dysprosium Metal
chemical element: Dy
( granular/chips )
Ultra pure quantities of the element Dysprosium (atomic number 66), ideal for element collectors or those conducting experiments/producing alloys with pure Dysprosium metal. Dysprosium is a silvery- white metallic rare-earth metal. Used in making laser components. Because of Dysprosium's high thermal neutron absorption cross-section, it is used in control rods for nuclear reactors. Dysprosium is highly susceptible to magnetization and finds use in specialized magnets and storage devices.
