Applications
Dysprosium trioxide is dopant in yttrium iron and yttrium aluminum garnet. It is also control material in nuclear reactor. Dy2O3 applies to make new light source dysprosium lamp with high brightness, good light color.
Dysprosium troxide uses as anode coating due to its cathode emission property. It is also raw material for metal dysprosium and additive for glass and NdFeB permanent magnet.
Dy2O3 is raw material for functional ceramics as piezoelectric ceramics, semiconductor material and capacitor ceramics and magneto-optical memory material.
