Rhenium is a rare transition metal known for its exceptional hardness, high density, and ductility. It has one of the highest melting points among all metals after tungsten. Rhenium is highly resistant to non-oxidizing acids and is easy to shape through deep drawing, bending, or pressing. It also offers excellent weldability and forgeability, remains stable in air, and is only slightly soluble in oxidizing acids. Rhenium becomes superconducting at temperatures below 1.7 K.

Rhenium is primarily used as an alloying agent. For instance, it enhances the creep and fatigue resistance of nickel-based superalloys at high temperatures. Rhenium alloys with platinum are used in thermocouples for temperature measurement, as well as in platinum-rhenium catalysts that help increase the octane rating of unleaded gasoline.
Main applications for rhenium include:
- Aircraft manufacturing (turbine blades)
- Petroleum industry (catalysts)
- Electrical industry (thermocouples)
- Mass spectrometry (hot cathodes, electrical switch contacts)
Key properties of rhenium metal:
- Outstanding hardness, density, and ductility
- High resistance to non-oxidizing acids
- Excellent formability, weldability, and forgeability
- Easily dissolves in oxidizing acids
- Stable in air
- Superconducting below 1.7 K
