Description:
Gadolinium, represented by the symbol Gd and atomic number 64, boasts an atomic weight of 157.25. This silvery-white, malleable metal features a melting point of 1313°C, a boiling point of 3273°C, and a density of 7.901g/cm³. Exhibiting magnetic properties at room temperature, gadolinium remains stable in dry air but loses its sheen in humid conditions. With the highest thermal neutron capture cross-section, gadolinium is invaluable in numerous applications. Found in the earth's crust at a concentration of 0.000636%, it primarily exists in minerals such as monazite and bastnasite. When processed through magnetized refrigeration, gadolinium salts can achieve ultra-low temperatures nearing absolute zero.
Application:
Gadolinium is extensively utilized across various sectors including medical, industrial, and nuclear energy. It serves as a critical neutron-absorbing material in atomic reactors and is also prominent in microwave technology and as phosphors in color televisions.
Moreover, gadolinium oxide, when combined with lanthanum, enhances the vitrified area and thermal stability of glass. It is also crucial in the production of capacitors and X-ray intensifying screens.
Gadolinium gallium garnet, containing gadolinium, forms an ideal single substrate for magnetic bubble memory devices.
