Samarium oxide powder 99.99% 500 g

Samarium oxide powder is a rare earth compound widely used in various industries. With its unique properties, including high melting point and excellent thermal stability, it is an essential component in the production of ceramics, glass, and catalysts. This fine powder is also utilized in the manufacturing of electronic devices, such as solid-state lasers and phosphors. Its distinct characteristics make samarium oxide powder a sought-after material for applications requiring high performance and reliability.
When working with Samarium oxide powder, it is important to follow these safety instructions: 1. Personal Protective Equipment (PPE): Always wear appropriate PPE, including gloves, safety goggles, and a lab coat or protective clothing. This will help protect your skin, eyes, and clothing from potential contact with the powder. 2. Ventilation: Work in a well-ventilated area or use a fume hood to prevent inhalation of the powder. Samarium oxide powder can release harmful fumes or dust particles when handled, so ensure proper airflow to minimize exposure. 3. Handling: Avoid direct contact with the powder as much as possible. Use tools such as spatulas or scoops to handle the powder, and avoid creating dust or aerosols. If spills occur, clean them up immediately using appropriate methods (e.g., wet wiping or vacuuming) to prevent dispersion of the powder. 4. Storage: Store Samarium oxide powder in a tightly sealed container in a cool, dry place away from incompatible materials. Ensure the container is labeled properly with the name of the substance and any relevant hazard warnings. 5. Fire precautions: Samarium oxide powder is not flammable, but it may emit toxic fumes when exposed to high temperatures. Keep the powder away from open flames or ignition sources. 6. First aid: In case of accidental exposure or ingestion, seek medical attention immediately. Rinse affected areas with plenty of water and remove contaminated clothing. Do not induce vomiting unless instructed by medical professionals. 7. Disposal: Dispose of Samarium oxide powder according to local regulations and guidelines. Contact your local waste management authorities for proper disposal methods. Remember, these safety instructions are general guidelines, and it is essential to consult the specific safety data sheet (SDS) provided by the manufacturer for detailed information on handling and safety precautions for Samarium oxide powder.
