Raw Material for Yttrium Oxide Production
According to the Yttrium Oxide production plant project report, the key raw materials used in the production of Yttrium Oxide include Xenotime Ore-Concentrated Sulfuric Acid or Caustic Soda.
Production Process of Yttrium Oxide
The extensive Yttrium Oxide production cost report consists of the following major industrial production process:
- Production From Xenotime Ore and Concentrated Sulfuric Acid or Caustic Soda: The production process of Yttrium Oxide consists of an extraction method. First, xenotime ore is crushed and then leached using concentrated sulfuric acid or caustic soda. This leaching process leads to the dissolution of yttrium forming yttrium oxide in the mixture. This mixture is then filtered and purified to obtain pure Yttrium Oxide as the final product.
Yttrium Oxide has a molecular formula of Y2O3 and a molecular weight of 225.810 g/mol. It is a white colored powder that is insoluble in water and also dissolves in chemical solvents, including acids. It has a high melting and boiling point of 2425°C and 4000°C, respectively. It remains stable under standard conditions but decomposes on heating to release acrid and toxic fumes into the air. Its density is 5.01 g/cm³ under a standard temperature of 25 °C. It has thermal conductivity and also resistivity to corrosion and heat. It has excellent luminescence efficiency, thermal and chemical stability, and color purity.
