1.1 Uses & Benefits
It has corrosion resistance and hence it is used to plate other metals.
Its alloys are very useful; Nichrome alloy is used in the hot coil of toasters and electric oven.
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.
