أكسيد البراسيوديميوم

وصف

Praseodymium Oxide, also known as Hexapraseodymium Undecaoxide, with the molecular formula Pr6O11. Dark brown powder, insoluble in water and soluble in mineral acids.
Meanwhile, Pr6O11 is an inorganic compound and one of the essential products in light rare earth products.

Application Fields of Praseodymium Oxide (Pr6O11) :

1. it is mixed with a ceramic glaze in architectural and daily-use ceramics to make the colored glaze.
It can also use an underglaze pigment alone, and the finished pigment is light yellow, pure, and elegant.
2. The manufacture of permanent magnets uses a lot of Praseodymium Oxide.
Using cheap praseodymium neodymium metal instead of pure neodymium metal to make permanent magnet materials improves anti-oxidation and mechanical performance. It can be processed into magnets of various shapes.
3. Application to abrasive polishing.
Praseodymium Oxide has good polishing properties for certain materials, so use it as a polishing material for polishing operations.
It mainly polishes optical glasses, metal products, flat glass, and TV picture tubes.
4. Application in the glass industry.
In addition, after adding Praseodymium Undecaoxide to glass, it makes the glass green colored, which can imitate precious stones.
5. petroleum catalytic cracking uses it.
It using in petroleum-cracking catalysts to improve catalytic activity. Therefore, using it as an additive in steelmaking, to purify molten steel, etc.
6. Many applications of various electronic equipment and motors.
7. Moreover, it also uses the field of optical fiber.

The application of Praseodymium Oxide is constantly expanding, except for the single form of Pr6O11, which is more used in the state of the mixture.
