| Holmium Oxide |
| Light yellow powder, insoluble in water, soluble in acid. |
| main application: |
| 1. It can be applied to halogen metal additives. |
| 2. Nano Ho2O3 can be used as additives for yttrium iron and yttrium aluminum garnet. |
| 3. Ho2O3 is used for YAG laser, which can improve the efficiency and precision of surgery. It can also be used to treat glaucoma (green cataract). |
| 4. In the optical fiber industry, nano-Ho2O3 can be used as materials for fiber products, such as laser components, sensors and magnifiers. |
| Application: | Ferrite metal, magnetostrictive material, phosphor additive, capacitor ceramic additive, atomic energy industry |
| Uses in ceramics, glass, phosphors and metal halide lamp, and dopant to garnet laser. Holmium can absorb fission-bred neutrons, it is also used in nuclear reactors to keep atomic chain reaction from running out of control. |
