2 Uses
2.1 Uses & Benefits
  • Actinium metal has a great source of alpha rays but it is hardly used outside research purpose.
  • It is also used in insecticides, hair dyes and as an anti-knocking additive for petrol. But all these are banned by the government as Lead metal is known for detrimental to health.
