Application:

✔ Scandium, used in doping aluminum alloys. As long as a few thousandths of scandium is added to aluminum, Al3Sc will be generated, which will modify the aluminum alloy and cause significant changes in the structure and properties of the alloy.

✔ There are very attractive development prospects in aerospace, aviation, ships, nuclear reactors, light vehicles and high-speed trains

✔ Scandium is also an excellent modifier of iron. A small amount of scandium can significantly improve the strength and hardness of cast iron.

✔ Scandium oxide also plays an important role in ceramic materials.

✔ As a densifying agent, scandium oxide can generate the refractory phase Sc2Si2O7 at the edge of fine particles, thereby reducing the high-temperature deformation of engineering ceramics

 

Advantages:

✔ Strict quality control of raw materials, process control and pre-delivery processes.

✔Strong technical capability makes it a reliable long-term supplier.

✔Technical support: 24 hours technical support by email or phone.

 

History:

Scandium is the "boron-like" element originally predicted by Mendeleev. Their discovery once again proved the correctness of the periodic law of elements and Mendeleev's foresight.

Scandium metal was only produced in 1937 from electrolytic melting of scandium chloride.
