Typical applications of Scandium Oxide Powder (Sc2O3 Powder):

  1. Aluminum-Scandium Alloys
  2. A new type of third generation electric light source material is made by transforming pure Sc2O3 into ScI3 and NaI.
  3. Laser materials
  4. The pure Sc2O3 can be used as the oxidant cathode activator of the cathode electron gun of the color TV picture tube
