Dysprosium is a very rarely occurring element and belongs to the metals of the rare earths. The metal is malleable and ductile. It also has very good reactivity. In air at a temperature of 20 °C, dysprosium slowly oxidizes. It reacts with water to form hydroxide. Along with holmium, dysprosium has the highest magnetic moment of all naturally occurring chemical elements. There are two modifications of dysprosium: α-dysprosium and at 1384 °C - β-dysprosium.

The economic and technical use of dysprosium is relatively limited. Thus, the metal is used as an alloying element in various alloys (e.g., in zinc alloys and as an alloying additive to zirconium). Its alloy with lead is used as shielding material in nuclear reactors. It is also used in special magnets. These are mainly used in generators of wind power plants. This makes the metal a valuable raw material.
The following applications of dysprosium are particularly noteworthy:
- various alloys (zinc alloys, alloying additive to zirconium, lead alloys);
- in permanent magnets;
- for the production of laser materials;
- in nuclear technology (production of control rods);
- in catalysts.
Dysprosium is characterized by the following properties:
- good malleability and ductility;
- very good reactivity;
- the highest magnetic moment of all elements (besides holmium);
- reacts with water;
- soluble in dilute acids to form salts.
