Rare Earths Members Neodymium (Nd) is the element after which Neodymium magnets are named. Praseodymium (Pr) is so close to Neodymium (Nd) that it is used in Neodymium magnets. Pr is right next to Nd on the periodic table and it's properties are very similar to those of Nd. So similar that about 25-35% of [...]
Rare Earth Stocks Rare earth metals are essential for many of the technological advancements we rely on today. Gadgets from cell phones to laptops require them, as do hybrid vehicles and solar panels. Your television couldn't function without rare earth metals, nor could any of your batteries. Rare earths are a group of 17 elements [...]
Canada Want To Becoming A Rare Earths Supplier According to Canadian media reports, the Canadian Department of Natural Resources will hire a British company to provide market forecasts for the next 10 years for more than twenty important minerals used in the production of electric vehicle batteries, solar panels, wind turbines, and military equipment. The [...]
The Light Rare Earth Elements (LREE), light-group rare earths, or LREE are a subset of the lanthanide series of the rare earth elements, which are themselves a special set of transition metals. Like other metals, the light rare earths have a shiny metallic appearance. They tend to produce colored complexes in solution, conduct heat and [...]
Rare-earth Recycling Magnetic Idea, recycling rare earth metals, rare-earth recycling invention, Recycle rare-earth elements and magnets Recycling keeps paper, plastics, and even jeans out of landfills. Could recycling rare-earth magnets do the same? Perhaps, if the recycling process can be improved. Scientists are working to more effectively remove the neodymium, a rare earth element, from [...]
Difference Between Light Rare Earth Element (LREE) & Heavy Rare Earth Element (HREE) LREE HREE Rare earth elements possess special chemical and physical properties that they help make smartphones, hybrid cars and other high-tech devices possible. REEs consist of the 15 elements in the Lanthanide series and two other elements that don't belong to that [...]
RARE EARTHS REPORT by Ellsworth Dickson Unless you happen to work in the rare earths industry, you probably don’t even think about these 17 rare earth metals – even though you reap their benefits every day and the military needs them to protect us. This became clear at the annual Argus Specialty Metals Week Conference [...]
U.S. dependence on China's rare earth - Trade war vulnerability (Reuters) - Rare earth elements are used in a wide range of consumer products, from iPhones to electric car motors, as well as military jet engines, satellites and lasers. Rising tensions between the United States and China have sparked concerns that Beijing could use its [...]
China’s saber-rattling on rare-earths trade has US officials looking for options On Wednesday, Chinese newspapers ran commentaries warning the United States that escalating trade tensions would result in China cutting off its rare-earth-minerals trade with the US. China is the dominant supplier of rare-earth minerals around the world. The minerals are used in all sorts [...]
Japan has developed a new method for recovering rare earth from neodymium magnets Researchers from the University of Tokyo, Okabe and other researchers have developed a method for the effective recovery of rare earths from neodymium magnets, saying that the use of this method to recover rare earths does not produce harmful waste liquid. [...]
Rare Earth - Boom, Bust and Boom again All commodity markets are prone to boom and bust cycles. But few have been as spectacular as that experienced by rare earths at the turn of the decade. Prices of such exotic components of the periodic table as dysprosium and terbium increased by multiples over 2010-2011 before [...]
Rare earth magnets questions: [Q] What are rare earth magnets? [A] The term Rare Earth Magnets is used to refer to a group of magnetic materials whose alloys consist of one or more of the Rare Earth elements on the periodic table. These materials are characterized by exceptionally strong magnetic properties. [Q] What are alnico [...]
