Gadolinium is a rare earth metal and belongs to the lanthanide group. It exhibits good ductility and forgeability. The metal is ferromagnetic and therefore has a heat capacity that is very dependent on the temperature. Gadolinium is stable in dry air. In humid air it covers with a non-protective oxide film. It dissolves in water with the formation of hydrogen. Metallic gadolinium dusts have pyrophoric properties, ie they are flammable and explosive. In its elemental form, the metal is toxic.

Gadolinium is mainly used as an alloying metal in chromium and iron alloys. The addition of just 1% gadolinium increases the machinability and the high temperature and oxidation resistance of these alloys. Gadolinium oxysulfides are used to make the green phosphor for radar screens. In addition, gadolinium compounds are used as contrast media for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Gadolinium is widely used:

• as an alloying metal in chromium and iron alloys;
• in electronic components;
• in radar screens to produce the green phosphor;
• in refrigerators;
• as a contrast medium for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Gadolinium has the following properties:

• good ductility and forgeability;
• ferromagnetism;
• pyrophoric properties (in finely divided form);
• Toxicity (in elemental form);
• soluble in water and in diluted acids.
