Neodymium is a light lanthanide metal and one of the more abundant rare-earth elements. It occurs in minerals with other lanthanides rather than as a native element. Its chemistry is dominated by the trivalent ion Nd³⁺, which gives many salts and glasses a pink to violet color. Technologically, neodymium is most important in high-strength permanent magnets and in optically active glasses and crystals.
The metal has a bright silvery metallic luster, Neodymium is one of the more reactive rare-earth metals and quickly tarnishes in air, forming an oxide that spalls off and exposes metal to oxidation. The metal, therefore, should be kept under light mineral oil or sealed in a plastic material. Neodymium exists in two allotropic forms, with a transformation from a double hexagonal to a body-centered cubic structure taking place at 863°C.
The name derives from the Greek neos for "new" and didymos for "twin". It was discovered by the Swedish surgeon and chemist Carl Gustav Mosander in 1841, who called it didymium (or twin) because of its similarity to lanthanum, which he had previously discovered two years earlier. In 1885, the Austrian chemist Carl Auer (Baron von Welsbach) separated didymium into two elements, one of which he called neodymium (or new twin).
Neodymium was discovered by Carl F. Auer von Welsbach, an Austrian chemist, in 1885. He separated neodymium, as well as the element praseodymium, from a material known as didymium. Today, neodymium is primarily obtained from through an ion exchange process monazite sand ((Ce, La, Th, Nd, Y)PO4), a material rich in rare earth elements.
From the Greek word neos meaning new, and didymos, twin. In 1841, Mosander, extracted a rose-colored oxide from cerite , which he believed contained a new element. He named the element didymium, as it was an inseparable twin brother of lanthanum. In 1885 von Welsbach separated didymium into two new elemental components, neodymia and praseodymia, by repeated fractionation of ammonium didymium nitrate. While the free metal is in misch metal, long known and used as a pyrophoric alloy for light flints, the element was not isolated in relatively pure form until 1925. Neodymium is present in misch metal to the extent of about 18%. It is present in the minerals monazite and bastnasite, which are principal sources of rare-earth metals.
Pure neodymium is a bright, silvery metal when freshly cut, but it tarnishes in air as an oxide layer forms. It is relatively soft and can be cut with a knife. The metal slowly reacts with moisture and oxidizes more rapidly when finely divided or heated.
The largest use of neodymium is in neodymium-iron-boron permanent magnets, commonly based on the Nd₂Fe₁₄B phase. These magnets are used in electric motors, generators, hard-disk drives, loudspeakers, sensors, and magnetic couplings. Neodymium-doped yttrium aluminium garnet, Nd:Y₃Al₅O₁₂, is a major solid-state laser material. Neodymium compounds are also used to color and filter glass, including didymium-type eyewear for glassworking.
Neodymium makes up about 18% of Misch metal, a material that is used to make flints for lighters. Neodymium is also a component of didymium glass, which is used to make certain types of welder's and glass blower's goggles. Neodymium is added to glass to remove the green color caused by iron contaminants. It can also be added to glass to create violet, red or gray colors. Some types of glass containing neodymium are used by astronomers to calibrate devices called spectrometers and other types are used to create artificial rubies for lasers. Some neodymium salts are used to color enamels and glazes.
Didymium, of which neodymium is a component, is used for coloring glass to make welders goggles. By itself, neodymium colors glass delicate shades ranging from pure violet through wine-red and warm gray. Light transmitted through such glass shows unusually sharp absorption bands. The glass has been used in astronomical work to produce sharp bands by which spectral lines may be calibrated. Glass containing neodymium can be used as a laser material to produce coherent light. Neodymium salts are also used as a colorant for enamels.
Isotopes in Geochronology
143Nd is a radiogenic isotope produced by decay of 147Sm, with a half-life of 1.06×1011 years. Thus, the isotope-amount ratio n(143Nd)/n(144Nd) can be used for dating rocks on long time scales and as a chemical tracer in geochemistry (Fig. IUPAC.60.1) [427] M. T. McCullocha, M. R. Perfita. Earth. Planet. Sci. Lett.56, 167 (1981)., [428] R. Eichhorn, R. Höll, E. Jagoutz, U. Schärer. Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta61, 5005 (1997).. The very small accumulation of 142Nd in billion-year-old metamorphosed rocks from Greenland [from the relatively short-lived (about 68×106 years) alpha decay of 146Sm] provided evidence that the crust of the Earth formed before the young planet was more than 100×106 years old. This is because only a short amount of time could have elapse to incorporate the 146Sm parent radionuclide into the ancient Greenland minerals before it decayed [429] M. G. Jackson, S. R. Hart, A. A. P. Koppers, H. Staudigel, J. Konter, J. Blusztajn, M. Kurz, J. A. Russell. Nature448, 684 (2007)., [430] G. Caro, B. Bourdon, J. L. Birck, S. Moorbath. Nature423, 428 (2003)..
Isotopes Used as a Source of Radioactive Isotope(s)
146Nd has been used in the production of 147Pm (with a half-life of 2.6 years), via the reaction 146Nd (n, γ) 147Nd, which is followed by a subsequent electron decay reaction, 147Nd→ 147Pm+β - reaction. 147Pm is a radioactive power-generation source [431] C. S. Lee, Y. M. Wang, W. L. Cheng, G. Ting. J. Radioanal. Nucl. Chem.130, 21 (1988)..
Neodymium most commonly forms compounds in the +3 oxidation state, and Nd³⁺ salts are typically pale pink, rose, lavender, or violet depending on ligand and hydration. Important compounds include neodymium(III) oxide, Nd₂O₃, neodymium(III) chloride, NdCl₃, and neodymium(III) fluoride, NdF₃. The oxide is a common intermediate in separation and materials production. Divalent neodymium is known in some solid-state compounds, but it is much less stable and far less common than Nd³⁺ chemistry.
See more information at the Neodymium compound page.
Bulk neodymium metal has low acute toxicity but is reactive as a fine powder and can present a fire hazard. Dusts and soluble salts should be handled as industrial chemical hazards because rare-earth compounds can irritate the eyes, skin, and respiratory tract. Strong neodymium magnets create mechanical hazards: they can pinch skin, shatter on impact, damage magnetic media, and interfere with some implanted medical devices.
Neodymium has a low-to-moderate acute toxic rating. As with other rare earths, neodymium should be handled with care.
Neodymium is widely dispersed in the crust, mainly in rare-earth minerals such as monazite and bastnäsite. In natural waters it is present at very low concentrations and tends to bind to particles, phosphates, carbonates, and organic matter rather than remain as a free ion. Mining and processing can disturb soils and generate waste streams containing other rare earths, thorium, uranium, acids, or salts, depending on the ore and process.
Neodymium is produced by mining rare-earth ores, separating mixed lanthanides through solvent extraction or ion-exchange processes, and reducing suitable halides or oxides to metal when needed. Demand is strongly tied to Nd-Fe-B magnets, often with praseodymium partly substituting for neodymium and dysprosium or terbium added for high-temperature performance. Supply is constrained by the difficulty of separating similar lanthanides and by the environmental controls needed for ore processing. Recycling from magnets is technically possible and increasing, but collection and separation remain limiting factors.
Made from electrolysis of its halide salts, which are made from monazite sand.
Neodymium is produced mainly by neutron-capture nucleosynthesis in evolved stars and stellar explosions, with contributions from both slow and rapid neutron-capture processes. It is less abundant than lighter elements but is a normal trace constituent of the Solar System. Meteorites and planetary rocks contain neodymium in rare-earth patterns useful for geochemical and isotopic studies.
- The name neodymium means “new twin,” reflecting its separation from didymium.
- Natural neodymium consists of several stable isotopes and very long-lived radioactive ¹⁴⁴Nd and ¹⁵⁰Nd.
- Neodymium glass can appear different colors under different lighting because of sharp f-electron absorption bands.
- Nd-Fe-B magnets are usually coated because the alloy corrodes readily.
- Samarium-cobalt magnets tolerate heat better, but Nd-Fe-B magnets usually provide stronger fields for their size.
