Description:
Lanthanum is a soft, malleable, ductile, silvery-white metal. Lanthanum occurs naturally in sediments: It oxidizes quickly in air and reacts with water to form the hydroxide. It is the second most reactive of the rare earth metals after europium. Lanthanum is concentrated commercially by crystallization of ammonium lanthanum nitrate. Ion-exchange and solvent extraction methods are used when high purity is desired. The metal is produced by electrolysis of molten anhydrous halides or by metallothermic reduction of its halides using alkali or alkaline earth metals (e.g., reduction of fluoride with calcium).
Areas of application:
- Lanthanum metal has no commercial use. However, its alloys have a wide range of applications. A lanthanum-nickel alloy is used to store hydrogen gas for use in hydrogen-powered vehicles. Lanthanum is also found in the anode of nickel-metal hydride batteries used in hybrid cars.
- Lanthanum is an important component of the mischmetal alloy (about 20%). The best-known use for this alloy is flint for lighters.
- Lanthanum-containing “rare earth” compounds are frequently used in carbon lighting applications such as studio lighting and film projection. They increase brightness and produce an emission spectrum similar to sunlight.
