Alloy Material: Adding scandium metal to alloys (e.g., aluminum-scandium alloys) significantly enhances strength, corrosion resistance, and heat resistance. This makes the alloys ideal for aerospace components, high-performance automotive parts, and structural materials requiring durability under extreme stress.
Catalyst: Scandium compounds serve as high-efficiency catalysts in chemical synthesis, enabling faster reactions, higher yields, and reduced energy consumption in pharmaceutical and petrochemical industries.
Special Glass Production: High strength scandium metal is a key additive in manufacturing special glass with unique optical, thermal, and mechanical properties, suitable for scientific research equipment, aerospace windows, and precision optical instruments.
Electric Light Source Material: The star application of scandium metal lies in manufacturing scandium sodium lamps—lighting fixtures celebrated for high luminous efficiency, natural light color, energy savings, long service life (up to 10,000 hours), and strong fog-breaking ability. They are widely used in highways, stadiums, and industrial workshops.
Solar Cells: Integrating scandium metal into solar cell panels enhances light absorption capacity, increasing photoelectric conversion efficiency by up to 15%. This advancement drives the performance of renewable energy systems for residential, commercial, and utility-scale projects.
Electronic Devices: Vapor deposition scandium metal and high-purity grades are essential for semiconductor devices, ferrites, and computer magnetic cores. Their excellent conductivity and magnetic properties ensure stable performance in modern electronics, from smartphones to industrial control systems.
We provide four primary purity grades: 4N (99.99%), 4N5 (99.995%), 5N (99.999%), and 6N (99.9999%). Each grade is tested for rare earth and non-rare earth impurities, with detailed specifications available upon request. For custom purity requirements, our R&D team can develop tailored solutions.
To preserve its quality, scandium metal is sealed in vacuum packaging with moisture-proof materials, then placed in sturdy containers to prevent physical damage during transit. We comply with international shipping regulations for hazardous materials, ensuring safe and timely delivery worldwide.
Absolutely. With a melting point of 1539°C and boiling point of 2836°C, high purity scandium metal maintains structural integrity in high-temperature environments, making it suitable for aerospace engines, industrial furnaces, and thermal processing equipment.
Scandium sodium lamps, crafted with scandium metal, offer 30-50% higher luminous efficiency than traditional sodium lamps, consume less energy, and provide better color rendering (closer to natural light). Their strong fog penetration also makes them ideal for outdoor lighting in harsh weather conditions.
