Stanford Materials Corporation (SMC) provides Thulium Metal with high quality and competitive prices. We also provide other Thulium products such as Thulium Oxide (Tm2O3), Thulium Chloride, Thulium Carbonate, Thulium Fluoride, Thulium Nitrate, etc.
Description of Thulium: Thulium is silvery-gray, soft, malleable, and ductile. It is the second least abundant of rare-earth elements. It can be cut with a knife.
Thulium Metal is mainly used in making superalloys and has some application in ferrites (ceramic magnetic materials) used in microwave equipment and also as a radiation source of portable X-rays. Thulium potentially has used in ferrites, ceramic magnetic materials that are used in microwave equipment. it is used in arc lighting for its unusual spectrum. Thulium Metal can be further processed into various shapes of ingots, pieces, wires, foils, slabs, rods, discs, and powder.

Application of Thulium: Portable X-ray devices use thulium that has been bombarded in a nuclear reactor as a radiation source. Thulium-170 is also gaining popularity as an X-ray source for cancer treatment via brachytherapy. In addition, Holmium-chromium-thulium triple-doped Yttrium aluminum garnet is an active laser medium material.
Packaging of Thulium Metals: SMC’s Thulium metals are clearly tagged and labeled externally to ensure efficient identification and quality control. Great care is taken to avoid any damage which might be caused during storage or transportation.
