Applications of europium
Technical Characteristics
It is a very expensive metal as it is costly to obtain and requires many stages of chemical and physical action. However, it is quite technologically advanced and easy to work with: rolled, bent, drilled and cut. Applications of europium (both pure and in alloys) are in industries such as:
- nuclear power industry;
- electronics;
- manufacture of laser equipment;
- production of phosphors;
- production of TIR-transistors.
This metal, as well as other rare-earth elements, is especially valuable for the production of modern smartphones; it is an indispensable element in the manufacture of color displays, electronic circuits and speakers. Like other rare metals, it is used as an alloying agent. In an alloy with zirconium, it expands the width of thermal neutron capture. In nuclear reactors, europium isotopes are part of absorbing rods. This metal forms light-sensitive crystals with halogens. The unstable isotope 154 Eu can be used as radioactive fuel. Eu 2 O3, is necessary in the thermochemical decomposition of deuterium and tritium. In laser optics, this metal serves as the basis for the creation of powerful lasers that generate radiation with a wavelength of 610 nm, A promising scientific direction is the use of isotopes of this metal as a fuel.
Storage
Eu is a fairly active element. Its valence is +2; +3. It replaces almost all metals in salt solutions, and oxidizes very quickly in the open air. When stored it is placed in tightly closed containers: cans with kerosene or filled with paraffin.
