Lanthanmetaphosphat-Pulver Anwendungen
Solid-state Electrolytes: Lanthan metaphosphate is applied as a solid electrolyte material in solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) and lithium-ion batteries. It facilitates ion transport at high temperatures, thereby improving energy storage and conversion device performance and safety.
Phosphors: Lanthan metaphosphate acts as a host matrix for rare-earth ions such as cerium, europium or terbium. It is used to produce phosphors in fluorescent lamps, cathode ray tubes (CRTs) and light-emitting diodes (LEDs).
Scintillators: Scintillators based on lanthan metaphosphate are utilised in radiation detectors and imaging devices. They are implemented in gamma-ray spectrometers and positron emission tomography (PET) scanners to detect and measure ionising radiation.
Optical Materials: Lanthan metaphosphate is employed in the production of optical materials such as lenses, prisms and optical fibres. Its capacity to transmit light across a broad spectral range is documented.
Glass and Ceramics: Lanthan metaphosphate is used as a flux in the manufacture of specialised glasses and ceramics. It reduces the melting point of materials and increases their resistance to temperature fluctuations.
Catalysis: Catalysts based on lanthan metaphosphate are utilised in chemical processes including esterification and dehydration reactions to accelerate chemical transformations.
Nuclear Waste Disposal: Lanthan metaphosphate is employed for the immobilisation of radioactive waste. It provides a stable matrix for the containment of radioactive elements.
Materials Research: Lanthan metaphosphate is utilised in scientific research and material development. It is applied in disciplines such as chemistry, physics and materials science.
Phosphate Glass Fibre: Lanthan metaphosphate can be incorporated into phosphate glass fibres. These fibres are used in the telecommunications sector, laser transmission systems and optical sensors.
Biomedical Imaging: Lanthan metaphosphate-based phosphors are used in medical imaging. They are applied in X-ray imaging and computed tomography (CT) to improve image capture quality and efficiency.
