Scandium Hydroxide

Introduction:

Scandium is a rare earth metal that has gained substantial interest due to its unique properties. Scandium is found primarily in Scandinavia, Russia, and China. It is used in various industries such as aerospace, electronics, and sports equipment. One of the most significant uses of scandium is in the production of Scandium Hydroxide (Sc(OH)3), which is a critical component in several manufacturing industries, including aluminum and light emitting diode (LED) production.

As a leading Chinese manufacturer of Scandium Hydroxide, we pride ourselves on delivering high-quality products to clients across the world. Our products are manufactured with state-of-the-art equipment, using the latest manufacturing techniques. We understand the unique properties of Scandium Hydroxide, and we have the expertise to provide our clients with the best product available on the market.

Properties and Benefits:

Scandium Hydroxide is a white powder that is soluble in water, making it an excellent source of scandium for many applications. One of the significant benefits of using Scandium Hydroxide in the aluminum industry is its ability to reduce the grain size of the aluminum alloy. This reduction results in increased strength and improved workability of the aluminum. In addition, scandium oxide (Sc2O3), which is derived from scandium hydroxide, is used in the production of high-performance LED lighting.

Scandium Hydroxide also offers excellent heat resistance properties, making it ideal for high-temperature applications. Furthermore, Scandium Hydroxide is non-toxic and is safe to handle, reducing the risk of handling hazardous materials.

Applications:

Scandium Hydroxide has several applications across multiple manufacturing industries. The primary use of Scandium Hydroxide is in aluminum alloy production, where it is added to reduce the grain size of the aluminum, resulting in an alloy that is stronger and more workable. The addition of Scandium Hydroxide to aluminum alloys has been shown to improve the resistance to corrosion, increase the strength of the alloy, and reduce its weight, making it ideal for use in the aerospace industry.

Another significant application for Scandium Hydroxide is in the production of LED lighting. Scandium oxide (Sc2O3), which is derived from scandium hydroxide, is an essential component in the production of high-performance LED lighting. Scandium oxide enhances the luminosity of LED lighting while reducing energy consumption, making it highly desirable for the lighting industry.

Scandium Hydroxide is also used in the manufacture of sports equipment, such as baseball bats and lacrosse sticks. Scandium alloys are highly desirable in sports equipment due to their lightweight and high-strength properties, making them ideal for use in high-performance sports gear.

Conclusion:

In summary, Scandium Hydroxide is a highly desirable material used extensively in several manufacturing industries worldwide. Its unique properties, such as increased strength, improved workability, and high heat resistance, make it highly desirable for use in aerospace, lighting, and sports equipment.

Scandium(III) hydroxide is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Sc(OH)3, the trivalent hydroxide of scandium. It is an amphoteric compound. It is slightly soluble in water, and its saturated solution (pH = 7.85) contains Sc(OH)3 and a small amount of Sc(OH)2+. The solubility of scandium(III) hydroxide in water is 0.0279 mol/L. It will convert to ScO(OH) after aging, greatly reducing the solubility (0.0008 mol/L). Scandium(III) hydroxide can be produced by reacting scandium salts and alkali hydroxides. In the reaction, different starting ingredients can generate different intermediates such as Sc(OH)1.75Cl1.25, Sc(OH)2NO3 and Sc(OH)2.32(SO4)0.34.
