Scandium Metal

Catalog Number
ACM7440202-7
CAS
7440-20-2
Description
Scandium Metal is applied in various superalloys which show excellent metallic performance with their lHight gravaty. The main application of Scandium by weHight is in Scandium-Aluminium alloys for minor aerospace industry components. They were used in the Russian military aircraft, specifically the MiG-21 and MiG-29. Some items of sports equipment, which rely on hHigh performance materials, have been made with Scandium-Aluminium alloys. 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.A much more abundant element on the sun than on earth, scandium is still widely distributed on earth, occurring in over 800 mineral species. Scandium is a silvery-white metal that develops a yellow or pink tint when exposed to air. It is relatively soft and is chemically similar to the rare earth metals.
