The ‘flints’ for cigarette lighters are the alloy’s most well-known application. Lanthanum foil containing “rare earth” compounds are widely employed in carbon lighting applications, including studio lighting and movie theatre projection.
They make things brighter and emit light with a spectrum that resembles that of the sun. batteries for hybrid cars. Mischmetal, an alloy largely made of cerium and lanthanum, is found in lighter flints. Studio lighting, projection, and carbon arc lighting are all common.
The Global Lanthanum Foil Market accounted for $XX Billion in 2023 and is anticipated to reach $XX Billion by 2030, registering a CAGR of XX% from 2024 to 2030.
ACS, Reagent, Technical, Food, Agricultural, Pharmaceutical, Optical Grade, USP, EP/BP, and adheres to all relevant ASTM testing norms.
American Elements specialises launched Lanthanum High Purity Foil & Sheets in a variety of thicknesses and sizes for a wide range of industrial uses, and it also offers information about this product’s health and workplace safety. The majority of foils are created from cast ingots for coating and thin film applications.
For specific applications like fuel cells and solar energy, chemical vapour deposition and physical vapour deposition processes are used, such as ultra-high purity thin film foil, thermal and electron beam evaporation, low temperature organic evaporation, atomic layer deposition, and organometallic and chemical vapour deposition.
For all metals, thickness can vary from 0.003″ to around 2mm. For use as an evaporation source in microelectronics, optics, magnetics, MEMS, and hard resistant coatings, some metals can also be rolled down to a thickness of 0.001″.Piece sizes are available up to a maximum width of about 7″.
For thin film deposition on glass or metal substrates, maximum lengths of around 20″ can be attained with nominal thicknesses of between roughly 0.005″ and 0.020″.Crystallisation, solid state, and other ultra high purification procedures like sublimation are used to make materials.
American Elements specialises in creating unique compositions for use in business, academia, and innovative, exclusive technology.
Additionally, American Elements casts all rare earth metals, the majority of other sophisticated materials, and other machined shapes using methods like nanoparticles and in the organometallics and solution forms. They also manufacture plates, rods, and powder from lanthanum. On request, additional shapes are available.
