Some neodymium salts are also used to color enamels. It also makes up nearly 20 percent of mischmetal, a material that is used to make flints for lighters. For the science geek in everyone ...

Magnets made of rare-earth metals like neodymium are commonly used in the generators found in offshore wind turbines. Turbines with neodymium magnets generally need less maintenance than those ...

Toyota says it has invented a new magnet for high-energy applications like electric motors that uses a fraction of the amount of neodymium (a rare-earth element) of a standard iron, boron ...

The researcher and his co-authors focused on applying MINC to extract a particular REE, neodymium. The “rare” part of rare earth elements is especially true with neodymium, as the lack of ...

One of the key ingredients in e-motors is neodymium, one of the most critical elements in the rare-earth magnets needed to create the permanent-magnet electric motors that are most common in today ...
