Product Introduction

Scandium Metal Powder – The Revolutionary Material for High-Tech Industries

 

Scandium metal powder is a rare earth metal that has been underutilized for many years. However, with the advent of new technologies and the growing demand for lightweight and high-performance materials, scandium is now gaining recognition as a revolutionary material for various industries.

 

As a manufacturer located in China, we specialize in the production and distribution of high-quality scandium metal powder for merchants in countries outside of China.

 

In this product introduction, we will explore the many aspects of scandium metal powder and how it can benefit your business.

 

What is Scandium Metal Powder?

 

Scandium metal powder is an extremely rare metal that is found in trace amounts in various minerals such as bauxite and wolframite. It is a silvery-white metal that has many unique properties that make it ideal for high-tech applications.

 

Scandium metal powder is typically produced by the reduction of scandium oxide with calcium or magnesium. The resulting metal powder is then purified to remove any impurities and ensure its purity level is above 99.99%.

 

Properties of Scandium Metal Powder

 

Scandium metal powder has several unique properties that make it an excellent material for various applications. These properties include:

 

- High Strength: Scandium has the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any metal. This makes it an ideal material for applications where weight is a critical factor, such as aerospace and defense.

- Lightweight: Scandium is one of the lightest structural metals, about twice as strong as aluminum. When mixed with aluminum, scandium alloy can reduce weight by up to 50% without compromising strength.

- Corrosion Resistance: Scandium metal powder is highly resistant to corrosion, making it ideal for use in harsh environments.

- Heat Resistance: Scandium has a high melting point of 1541℃, making it resistant to heat and able to withstand high temperatures.

- Superconductivity: Scandium can exhibit superconductivity at very low temperatures, making it useful in high-magnetic fields.

 

Applications of Scandium Metal Powder

 

Scandium metal powder has a wide range of applications, including:

 

1. Aerospace and Defense: Scandium is used in the aerospace and defense industries due to its lightweight and high strength properties. Scandium alloys can reduce weight and increase fuel efficiency, making them ideal for aircraft, satellites, and spacecraft.

 

2. Sporting Goods: Scandium is used in the production of sporting goods such as baseball bats, bicycle frames, and golf clubs due to its lightweight and high-strength properties.

 

3. Electronics: Scandium is used in the electronics industry due to its superconductivity properties. It is used in the production of superconducting wires, which are used in MRI machines and particle accelerators.

 

4. Renewable Energy: Scandium is used in the production of wind turbines and fuel cells, where it helps increase their efficiency and durability.

 

5. Automotive: Scandium is used in automotive applications for its lightweight and high-strength properties. It can reduce weight and increase fuel efficiency, making it ideal for car frames and body panels.

Production

Hunan Oriental Scandium specializes in producing high purity Scandium Metal Powder with the smallest possible average grain sizes for use in preparation of pressed and bonded sputtering targets and in Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) and Physical Vapor Deposition (PVD) processes including Thermal and Electron Beam (E-Beam) Evaporation, Low Temperature Organic Evaporation, Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD), Metallic-Organic and Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD). Powders are also useful in any application where high surface areas are desired such as water treatment and in fuel cell and solar applications. Our standard powder particle size is - 100 mesh.


Application

1. Scandium metal powder can be used to make AlSc sputtering target by powder metallurgy process. The scandium powder’s purity, gas impurities, particle size, particle distribution range, phase structure, morphology, major impurities need to be special tailored.

2. To produce other compounds: like employed in solid-state synthesis of unusual clusters, Sc19Br28Z4, (Z=Mn, Fe, Ru or Os). These clusters are of interest for their structure and magnetic properties.

3. As chemical reagents.
