Thulium Metal Description
Thulium is silvery-gray, soft, malleable and ductile. It is the second least abundant of rare-earth elements. It can be cut with a knife.
Thulium Metal, is mainly used in making superalloys, and has some application in ferrites (ceramic magnetic materials) used in microwave equipment and also as a radiation source of portable X-ray. Thulium potentially has use in ferrites, ceramic magnetic materials that are used in microwave equipment. it is used in arc lighting for its unusual spectrum. Thulium Metal can be further processed to various shapes of ingots, pieces, wires, foils, slabs, rods, discs and powder.

Thulium Metal Application
Portable X-ray devices use thulium that has been bombarded in a industrial reactor as a radiation source. Thulium-170 is also gaining popularity as an X-ray source for cancer treatment via brachytherapy. In addition, Holmium-chromium-thulium triple-doped Yttrium aluminum garnet is an active laser medium material.
