Ytterbium Metal The Is Soft Quite Ductile And Malleable - China

Ytterbium is a bright silvery metal that is relatively stable in air and

reacts slowly in water.

The metal is soft, quite ductile, and malleable.

It is a mixture of seven stable isotopes.

At ambient temperatures it has

a face- centered cubic structure, a density of 6.965 gm/ cm3, a melting

point of 819 °C, and a boiling point of 1196 °C.

Above 798 °C to its

melting point, ytterbium’s structure transforms to body- centered cubic

with a density of 6.54 - Ytterbium oxide, or ytterbia, occurs as a

sesquioxide with the formula Yb2O3 - The oxide is a white powder with a

specific gravity of 9.17gm/ cm3, a melting point of 2355 °C, a boiling

point of 4070 °C, and a formula weight of 394.08.

Ytterbium is used in some solar cells, optical glasses, crystals, and ceramics.

It can be utilized as a doping material for high power solid- state lasers and as an alloy that helps to strengthen stainless steel.

Like Thulium, Ytterbium is employed in portable x- ray machines where electricity is not available.

Purity: Yb/ TREM = 99.9 - 99.99% min

Packing: In iron drums with inner double PVC bags of 100kg net each, or packed according to customers' specifications
