We offer Yttrium metal
Grade: 99.9 % (3N)
Application: As an essential additive in preparing superalloy.

Physical properties
Yttrium has a bright, silvery surface, like most other metals. It is also prepared as a dark gray to black powder with little shine. Yttrium has a melting point of 1,509°C (2,748°F) and a boiling point of about 3,000°C (5,400 F). Its density is 4.47 grams per cubic centimeter.

Chemical properties
The chemical properties of yttrium are similar to those of the rare earth elements. It reacts with cold water slowly, and with .

Yttrium is sometimes included in superconducting materials. Here, a small magnet hovers over a nitrogen-cooled specimen of a superconducting ceramic.

hot water very rapidly. It dissolves in both acids and alkalis. An alkali is the chemical opposite of an acid. Sodium hydroxide ("household lye") and limewater are common alkalis.

Solid yttrium metal does not react with oxygen in the air. However, it reacts very rapidly when in its powdered form. Yttrium powder may react explosively with oxygen at high temperatures.
