Ytterbium (III) oxide ? Strategic Elements
Ytterbium (III) oxide is a chemical compound of the elements ytterbium [Yb] and
oxygen [O] and belongs to the group of metal oxides.
Ytterbium (III) oxide is a white powder. Like the other trivalent oxides of the
heavier lanthanides, it crystallizes in a lanthanide-C cubic structure. It
reacts with carbon tetrachloride or hot hydrochloric acid to form ytterbium
chloride.
Ytterbium (III) oxide is used as an additive for special alloys and dielectric
ceramic materials, as a catalyst and in special glasses. It can also be used as
an additive for carbon electrodes in arc lamps, which produce a very bright
light.
