    USE

    1.It is an important raw material for producing rare earth metals and alloys by oxide electrolysis and calcium thermal reduction. For example, in oxide electrolysis, praseodymium-neodymium fluoride is used as an electrolyte to produce metals. In addition, rare earth fluoride is also used as an additive for steel and non-ferrous alloys to improve the performance of steel.
    2.PrNdF has important applications in laser technology and can be used to prepare efficient solid-state lasers and fiber lasers. At the same time, it can also be used to prepare various thin film materials and optical coatings to improve the transmittance and wear resistance of materials.
    3.In addition, praseodymium-neodymium fluoride is also commonly used in medical devices, such as X-ray fluorescence analyzers and medical lasers. It has a high radioactive absorption capacity and can effectively protect the human body from radiation damage.
    4.Metallurgical Industry: Praseodymium-neodymium fluoride is used as an additive in magnesium alloys for aviation and in electrolytic production of metals in the metallurgical industry, which helps to improve the purity and performance of metals.
    5.‌Glass optical fiber raw material‌: Praseodymium-neodymium fluoride is also used as the raw material of rare earth fluoride glass optical fiber, which is widely used in the fields of communications and optics.
    6.Rare earth crystal laser materials: PrNdF is used to prepare rare earth crystal laser materials, which play an important role in high-tech fields such as medical, scientific research and industrial applications.
    7.Lighting Sources: In the lighting field, praseodymium-neodymium fluoride is used to manufacture arc lamp carbon electrodes, which is essential to improving the efficiency and performance of lighting equipment.
    8.‌Preparation of metallic neodymium‌: PrNdF is used to prepare metallic neodymium, which is further used to manufacture neodymium iron boron alloy, an important rare earth permanent magnet material widely used in electronics, aviation, medical and other fields. ‌

    STORAGE CONDITIONS

    1.Store in a cool, dry and ventilated place.
    2.Sealed and not placed in the open air.

    PACKAGE

    1.The product is packed into double-layer plastic bags or plastic bottles, and then the bags (bottles) are placed in barrels or boxes.
    2.Other forms of packaging can be provided according to customer needs.

    CHEMICAL PROPERTIES

    1.NdPrF2 is more resistant to corrosion in air than lanthanum, cerium, neodymium, and europium. ‌However, when exposed to air, NdPrF2 develops a brittle black oxide layer. The formation of this black brittle oxide layer indicates that NdPrF2 is not completely stable in air and undergoes some oxidation process.
    2.NdPrF2 is insoluble in water, but soluble in certain strong acids, such as perchloric acid. This makes NdPrF2 stable and soluble in certain applications, and is suitable for use in materials science and chemistry fields that require these specific chemical properties.
