Sm₂O₃ vs. Alternative Materials: Competitive Advantages at a Glance
While alternatives like dysprosium oxide (Dy₂O₃) or ferrite magnets exist, Nd₂O₃ offers unmatched benefits:
| Feature | Sm₂O₃ | Alternatives (e.g., Nd2O3) |
|---|---|---|
| Magnetic Strength | Moderate, stable at high temperature | Higher but thermally unstable |
| Neutron Absorption | Excellent (neutron absorber) | Limited |
| Cost Efficiency | High due to abundant rare earth reserves | Higher production costs |
| Catalytic Use | Effective in alcohol oxidation | Less efficient |
Sm₂O₃’s unique properties, such as stability under irradiation, make it indispensable for control rods for nuclear reactors and optical systems.
