Product Information

• Name: Holmium (III) oxide
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: Holmium is a rare earth metal that belongs to the group of oxide. It is a soft, silvery-white, chemically inert and malleable metal. The element has two allotropic forms, holmium (III) oxide and holmium (III) nitrate. Holmium (III) oxide is used in high-temperature applications such as in x-ray equipment. It has a transition temperature range of 865°C to 1085°C and can be used at temperatures up to 1450°C with an argon atmosphere. The diffraction pattern for holmium (III) oxide is similar to those of other crystals in the same family. This element exhibits strong absorption lines in the infrared region between 2500 nm and 3200 nm.
