Europium metal is steel grey metal of body-centered cubic lattice, which is soft and ductile. It is rare earth element, which is available with powder, foil, rod, piece, ingot, granule, slug, sputtering target. Europium powder react rapidly with oxygen and water. When heating to 150~180℃, it fires in air. Europium powder tend to ignite, which is most active among rare earth metals. There are two production method, reduction and distillation. Distilled Eu piece is dendritic with higher purity than reduced Europium.
