High Purity 99.99% Lutetium Metal Lu CAS 7439-94-3 For Special Alloy

Lutetium (Lu) is a rare earth metal element with the chemical symbol Lu, which ranks 71st in the periodic table of elements. Lutetium is known for its high hardness, high density and high melting point (1663 ° C), and is one of the most expensive and hardest of the rare earth elements. Lutetium is relatively stable in air, but its oxide is colorless crystal, soluble in acid to form the corresponding salt.
Lutetium is widely used, especially in technology and industry. In the field of optics, lutetium elements are used in the manufacture of high refractive index optical glasses and laser materials to improve the durability and stability of equipment. In the electronics industry, lutetium is used to manufacture electronic components such as capacitors and inductors. In addition, lutetium is also used in the medical field, such as the manufacture of radiopharmaceuticals for the treatment of cancer and thyroid diseases, demonstrating its potential in medical diagnosis and therapy.
