Neodymium

 

MATERIAL OVERVIEW

Characteristics: Soft, malleable, grey, yellowish metal. Tarnishes easily. Liberates hydrogen from water, soluble in dilute acids. High electrical resistivity, paramagnetic. Readily cut and machined. Stored under mineral oil or inert gas to prevent tarnish and corrosion.

Hazards: Irritant to eyes and abraded skin (salts).
