1. Used as additives for yttrium aluminum and yttrium iron garnet, sensitized fluorescent materials in instruments, control materials for nuclear reactors, raw materials for making metal gadolinium, materials for making magnetic bubble and optical prism additives, etc.
2. Used for X-ray intensification screen and sensor;
3. Gadolinium oxide can also be used in neutron filters, neutron shielding and neutron flaw detectors, etc., and can also be used in catalysts such as CO hydrogenation and nitrogen absorption agents in titanium production;
4. Also used in dielectric ceramics and radiation resistant alloys; Gadolinium garnets can be used in lasers and bubble memory.
Gadolinium oxide can be used in a variety of industries. In the glass industry, Gadolinium oxide is used exclusively as a component of high refractive index glass. Gadolinium oxide is used together with lanthanum to help change the glass transition zone and improve the thermal stability of the glass. Nuclear industry Chemicalbook is used for nuclear reactor control rods, neutron absorption materials in atomic reactors, magnetic bubble materials, sensitizing screen materials, etc. Gadolinium oxide can also be used in the manufacture of capacitors, X-ray intensification screens, gadolinium garnet materials, ceramics, etc.
