1.1 Uses & Benefits
Magnets of Samarium cobalt alloy are stronger than that of Iron and hence, they are used in microwave application.
Samarium metal also used in optical lasers and infrared absorbing glasses and as a neutron absorber.
Holmium metal has an ability to absorb neutrons, so this metal is used in nuclear reactors to keep the chain reactions of elements under control.
Alloys of Holmium are used to produce Magnet.
