Dysprosium Chloride (DyCl3) Description
Anhydrous Dysprosium Chloride serves specific purposes in the production of laser glass, phosphors, and Dysprosium Metal Halide lamps. Dysprosium, when combined with Vanadium and other elements, plays a crucial role in manufacturing laser materials and contributing to advancements in commercial lighting. Additionally, Dysprosium is a key component of Terfenol-D, a material utilized in transducers, wide-band mechanical resonators, and high-precision liquid-fuel injectors. Given its high susceptibility to magnetization, Dysprosium and its compounds find application in various data storage technologies, notably in hard disks.
