Cadmium (rarely also called cadmium) is a very rare metal. It has excellent malleability and ductility, and it is soft and malleable. Cadmium is resistant to air and, when heated, forms an oxide layer. The metal does not dissolve in alkalis. It is difficult to dissolve in sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid, and it dissolves well in nitric acid. Cadmium has high toxicity and is therefore very poisonous.
You can buy cadmium with a few clicks in the Evek GmbH online shop. As a reliable supplier, we ensure safe deliveries worldwide. You can trust us.
Cadmium metal is considered a very good corrosion protection for iron materials. Applying cadmium to the steel surface is called cadmifying. In addition, this metal is used for nickel-cadmium accumulators and is used as an alloying component of low-melting alloys (Wood’s metal, bearing metals). It is also used as a component of soldering tin.
Cadmium metal has the following properties:
- excellent malleability and ductility;
- good malleability;
- stable in air;
- insoluble in alkalis;
- highly toxic and very poisonous.
Cadmium metal has a wide range of applications:
- as corrosion protection (cadmifying);
- for nickel-cadmium batteries;
- as an alloy metal in low-melting alloys;
- for manufacturing semiconductors and soldering materials;
- for coloring glass yellow, orange and red.
