Oxidation Characteristics of the Lanthanide Metals

Abstract
Oxidation rates and rate equations off La, Ce, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho, Er, Tm, Lu„ Y were determined in dry and moist air in the temperature range 100–800 C (212–1472 F) by precision weight gain measurements Oxide structures were examined by both metallographie and x-ray analyses. Observed oxidation characteristics are related to oxide structures and the physico-chemical properties of the rare earth metals.
