  • Galvanizing Difficult Steels
    Article - 26 Feb 2002
    Sometimes galvanizers receive questions about galvanizing unique steels or uncommon steel sections that are outside the standard range processed by the company’s galvanizing operations.
  • Zirconium (Zr) Properties & Applications
    Article - 15 Jan 2002
    Zirconium is usually contaminated with hafnium due to their chemical similarity. It is resistant to most solvents and performs well in nuclear reactors, where most zirconium metal is used.
  • An Overview of Gallium
    Article - 18 Dec 2001
    Gallium is present as a trace element in germanite, sphalerite, diaspore, coal, and bauxite. Although this metal occurs naturally in approximately the same amount as lead, it is extensively dissipated...
  • An Overview of Gadolinium
    Article - 18 Dec 2001
    Marignac first isolated gadolinia, an oxide of gadolinium (Gd), in 1880. Then, in 1886, Lecoq de Boisbaudran successfully separated the element from Mosander’s “yttria.”
  • An Introduction to Erbium
    Article - 18 Dec 2001
    Part of the lanthanide series, erbium (Er) is a rare-earth element found in a wide range of minerals like blomstrandine, polycrase, fergusonite, euxenite, xenotime, and gadolinite.
  • An Introduction to Dysprosium
    Article - 18 Dec 2001
    Dysprosium (Dy) is a chemical element belonging to the actinide series. In 1950, Spedding and colleagues isolated the element using techniques like metallographic reduction and ion-exchange...
  • Nickel Chrome Alloys - Properties and Applications
    Article - 24 Sep 2001
