Terbium Rare Earth Element


*Terbium Rare Earth Element was discovered by Carl Gustaf Mosander in 1842.
* Terbium Rare Earth Element is the 9th element of Lanthanide element family and its chemical symbol is Tb.
* Terbium silvery-gray element is considered to be low toxic and Terbium Rare Earth Element’s atomic weight is 158.9254.
*Terbium is a ductile rare earth metal and Terbium Rare Earth Element is not too much rough in air. Terbium Rare Earth Element can sometimes be cut by a knife. Unlike most of other rare earth metals, Terbium may form 4+ ions easily.
*Sometimes Terbium metal becomes just like Calcium and it is found in minerals.

   
*Like many other lanthanide elements, Terbium is used in magnet production and these magnets are being used in            Hybrid Car Engines and other electric motors.
* Terbium Rare Earth is also used in lighting applications in different industries.

*Terbium Rare Earth Element is considered to be relatively toxic.

* Terbium Rare Earth Element is used to defeat counterfeiters for Euro banknotes. Shining UV light on a euro results in    green fluorescence from terbium Tb3+ . Also, this feature is valid for color television tubes.

* Terbium Rare Earth Element is also used as a dopant for materials in solid-state devices and optical fibers.

Carbon Nanotube Threads

Since its discovery, carbon nanotube (CNT) has attracted many interests in different technology fields due to its extraordinary properties. Properties such as, high strength, great electrical and thermal conductivity, light weight and flexibility made CNT one of the best materials for wide range of applications. However, from its name it can be understood that CNT is a nanoscale material which is very small to be applied for the production of daily products. Researchers all around the world are working on finding methods and techniques which could produce new materials with the extraordinary properties of CNT. Image retrieved from:  https://worldindustrialreporter.com/strong-light-flexible-carbon-nanotubes-threads-with-ultrahigh-conductivity/ One of these research is focusing on the production of high strength threads that can be used in the manufacturing of fabrics, cables and ropes. An international group of scientists were able to produce a flexible conductive thread th...

Multi Walled Carbon Nanotube Dispersions

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs)  have attracted enormous attention in recent years due to its unique physical, electronic, optical and potential applications in materials science and nanotechnology. The van der Waals interaction between tubes, however, makes CNTs aggregate in most organic solvents and aqueous solutions, which is the major limitation of their practical applications.Various approaches have been studied to alter the CNT surface to promote the dispersion of individual nanotubes and prevent their reaggregation. On the basis of this widely accepted viewpoint, numerous techniques such as covalent bonding, surfactant coating and polymer wrapping have been developed for surface modification or sidewall functionalization.These methods, however, are complicated, time-consuming and cause permanent damage to the CNT structure and properties of the surface, which produces residues of the dispersion agent for the final product.
