3 Uses

3.1 Uses & Benefits

Currently known uses of Darmstadtium metal are limited to research purpose only. As only few atoms of this metal are produced.

It has very limited uses as it is a toxic metal and it can cause birth defects, cancer, etc.
Almost 80% of Cadmium metal is used in Nickel cadmium Batteries and now it is getting replaced with nickel hydride.
