GADOLINIUM CHLORIDE - Application

Gadolinium has the highest thermal neutron capture cross section and can be used as a reactor control material and a structural material to prevent nuclear radiation. Gadolinium can also be used as an additive for new magnetic materials yttrium iron garnet and yttrium aluminum garnet. The ultra-low temperature close to absolute zero (0.002K) can be obtained by magnetization cooling with gadolinium salt. Gadolinium compounds can be used as matrix materials for phosphors, used to manufacture X-ray intensifier screens and projection television devices.
