Yttrium foil is typically manufactured through a combination of processes involving casting, rolling, and annealing. Although thinner foils require rolling, if a small quantity of thicker sheets is purchased, they can be directly cut from the ingot, reducing the minimum order quantity and lead time.
Yttrium, a chemical element represented by the symbol Y and atomic number 39, is a silvery transition metal that belongs to the rare earth elements. It is named after the village of Ytterby in Sweden, where it was first discovered. Yttrium has diverse applications in various fields, including electronics, lasers, and medical imaging. Its compounds are used in phosphors for color television displays and energy-efficient lighting. Yttrium oxide finds use in ceramics, while yttrium iron garnets are employed in microwave filters and memory devices. Yttrium is also utilized in superconductors, catalysts, and as a dopant in materials to enhance their properties. With its versatile properties and wide-ranging applications, Yttrium continues to be a valuable element in modern technology and scientific research.
Yttrium Plate are vacuum sealed in plastic bags or argon protected in other container for safety shipment. We also use heavy foam to protect this rare earth material. Common documents together with these rare earth metals are packing list and analytical report (COA).Please contact us at for specific academic pricing.
