Praseodymium powder is made from praseodymium metal, which is yellow metal of hexagonal crystal system, which turns dark in moisture air and form a layer of oxide. Praseodymium metal is also available in piece, ingot, lump, foil, sputtering target and so on. It is insoluble in acid or aqua regia. Praseodymium metal fine particles are inflammable. It should avoid oxides, fire, heat for storage.
