Neodymium Oxide

Описание

Neodymium Oxide (Nd2O3) also commonly serves as a glass additive. Adding Nd2O3 to glass can change the optical, electrical, and thermal properties of the glass, giving the glass special functions.

First, the addition of Neodymium Oxide can change the optical properties of the glass. Nd2O3 has a relatively high refractive index, so adding an appropriate amount of Neodymium Oxide to glass can increase the refractive index of the glass. This makes the glass more transparent and brighter.
In addition, Nd2O3 can also absorb some wavelengths in ultraviolet and visible light, reduce light reflection and scattering, and improve the transparency of glass. That is to say, Preparing high-transparency glass materials, such as optical glass, optical fibers, etc. can use Neodymium Sesquioxide.

In addition to optical properties, the addition of Nd2O3 can also change the electrical properties of the glass. Neodymium Sesquioxide is an N-type semiconductor material with high electrical conductivity. Therefore, adding an appropriate amount of Nd2O3 to glass can increase the electrical conductivity of the glass and make it have good electrical conductivity. Then this makes Nd2O3 doped glass widely used in electronic devices, such as sensors, displays, touch screens, etc.

Besides, the addition of Neodymium Oxide can also improve the thermal properties of the glass. Neodymium Sesquioxide has high thermal conductivity and thermal stability and can effectively conduct and disperse heat. Therefore, adding Nd2O3 to glass can increase the heat and cold resistance of the glass. This makes Neodymium Oxide-doped glass commonly used in high-temperature applications, such as furnace windows, thermoelectric materials, etc.

At the same time, the addition of Nd2O3 can also prevent oxidation or corrosion on the glass surface and improve the corrosion resistance of the glass. Therefore, Neodymium Oxide-Doped Glass is often used to prepare high-strength, high-corrosion-resistant glass materials, such as chemical instruments, chemical reactors, etc.
