1.1 Uses & Benefits
Ytterbium metal is used in memory devices and tuneable laser.
It is also used as industrial catalyst as the other catalysts are too toxic and polluting.
Tin and bismuth alloys have a very low melting point and hence it is used in fire detector and the fire extinguishers. It also used in electric solders and fuses.
