Cadmium Metal Description
Cadmium Metal is a soft, bluish-white metal that is classified as a transition metal. It has a low melting point and is relatively ductile. Cadmium is commonly found in the Earth's crust and is often obtained as a byproduct of zinc production. It is used in various alloys, such as those used in batteries, electrical contacts, and solder. Cadmium is also a component of pigments used in paints, plastics, and ceramics.
