Product Introduction

 

As a manufacturer of Distilled Scandium Metal based in China, we are excited to introduce our product to merchants from around the globe. This unique metal offers a range of exciting properties that make it an attractive option for a multitude of uses. In this product introduction, we will explore the benefits of Distilled Scandium Metal, and why it is a vital material for many industries.

 

What is Distilled Scandium Metal?

 

Scandium is a silvery-white transition metal, discovered in 1879 by Swedish chemist Lars Fredrik Nilson. It is extracted by removing it from other minerals and is relatively rare, with the majority of scandium being sourced from mines in China, Madagascar, and Russia. Distilled Scandium Metal is produced by heating scandium oxide in a vacuum until it vaporizes, then the vapor is condensed and collected. It is a very pure form of scandium, with a purity of 99.99%.

 

Properties and Uses of Distilled Scandium Metal

 

One of the main benefits of Distilled Scandium Metal is its impressive strength and durability. It is a lightweight metal, making it perfect for use in aircraft and other transportation vehicles. The United States Air Force has been using Scandium-Aluminum alloy in the F-16 and F-35 fighter jets for years to reduce the weight of the plane and increase its durability. Scandium can also significantly enhance the mechanical properties of aluminum alloys, such as increasing the strength, ductility, and weldability.

 

Distilled Scandium Metal also has excellent electrical and thermal conductivity properties. As such, it is suitable for use in electronic devices, power transmission cables, and other high-tech applications. It is utilized in high-intensity lamps and lasers to produce intense, white light. It is a crucial component of mercury-vapor lamps, metal-halide lamps, and other lighting technologies due to its high refractive index.

 

Furthermore, it is a crucial material used for the manufacture of sports equipment, including baseball bats, golf clubs, and bicycle frames. This is thanks to its excellent fatigue life and the enhancement of the mechanical properties of materials to which it is added. Also, it exhibits better corrosion resistance than other commonly used alloys in these products, such as aluminum.

 

Another application of Distilled Scandium Metal is the production of nuclear reactor components. It is used as a coating on fuel rods to prevent swelling, which helps increase their lifespan. Its high melting point and stability at high temperatures make it a valuable material in nuclear reactor applications.

 

Finally, Distilled Scandium Metal is showing promise in the medical industry. It is a vital part of a new type of surgical laser that is currently in development, showing promise for cancer treatment, among other medical applications.

Scandium metal is silver gray rare earth. It oxidize in air and show light yellow or pink. The package should avoid fire, air, water and oxidizing agent. There are two different production methods for it, distillation method and reduction method. The distilled scandium get better quality than the reduced one. The distilled scandium is dendritic like crystal of metallic lustre. However the reduced one is broken irregular pieces.

Production

Scandium metal can be prepared by reducing the fluoride with calcium metal. It can also be prepared by electrolysing molten potassium, lithium and scandium chlorides, using electrodes of tungsten wire and molten zinc.

 

To produce distilled scandium metal, the oxide is converted to scandium fluoride and then reduced with metallic calcium and then distilled.

 

Hunan Oriental Scandium has its own advantage of scandium resources. The scandium raw material comes from the waste acid of titanium dioxide in our group, LB group, which is the 3rd largest titanium dioxide manufacturer in the world.

 

Hunan Oriental Scandium has been focused on the scandium industry for more than a decade and is the world's top scandium metal manufacturing supplier, occupies most of the scandium metal production and export in China.

 

Application

Scandium metal is known as "bright element". In addition to being used in new electric light source, laser material and alloy addition, scandium metal is also widely used in new application fields such as shape memory material and piezoelectric material. High purity scandium metal is one of the most effective key materials for producing 5G chips.

 

Hunan Oriental Scandium manages in accordance with the ISO9001 quality management system to ensure the traceability management of the whole process of scandium metal from raw material to production process control to warehouse delivery. Our company produces scandium metal with high purity, low oxygen content and good quality stability, and the products are exported to the world.

 

Scandium (Sc) doped aluminum nitride (AlN) is a kind of piezoelectric material widely used in radio frequency filters, ultrasonic sensors, oscillators and other devices. It can replace the conventional aluminum nitride (AlN) piezoelectric material used in internal radio frequency filters of mobile phones and fingerprint readers under ultrasonic screens. By introducing scandium (Sc) into AlN, the electromechanical coupling and piezoelectric coefficient of the material can be improved, thus achieving a more efficient conversion of mechanical energy to electrical energy. For the future production of higher efficiency of radio frequency equipment and higher sensitivity of fingerprint identification equipment to lay a foundation.
