Europium (Eu)

Europium (Eu)

First detected in 1890, europium was isolated in reasonably pure form in 1901.

Europium has a silvery-white metallic appearance and ignites in air between 150 and 180 °C. It's as hard as lead and quite ductile. The most reactive of the rare earth metals, it quickly oxidizes in air and reacts with water. Seventeen isotopes of europium are recognized.

This element is found mostly in bastnasite and monazite ores and has been identified spectroscopically in the sun and certain stars.

Europium isotopes are being studied for possible use in nuclear control applications, while europium-doped plastic is used as a laser material.
