(5N) 99.999% Yttrium Oxide

High purity (5N, 99.999%) yttrium oxide or yttria powder is a versatile material that can serve as a precursor for the synthesis of such compound oxide ceramics such as yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) which is critical to high temperature applications such as solid oxide fuel cell electrolytes and advanced defense technology for armor and optical imaging. 5N yttria powder also is used as a precursor material for the growth of optical crystals like YAG (yttrium aluminum garnet), YAP (yttrium aluminum perovskite), YIG (yttrium iron garnet), all of which are available undoped or doped with elements like Er, Ce, Cr, Tm, or other rare earths. Advanced high-temperature ceramic materials like YBCO (yttrium barium copper oxide) can be synthesized using high purity yttria powder. Other uses include dielectric and inert packing materials in sensor assemblies, semiconductor packaging, or electronics components. Ultra high purity yttrium oxide powder is suitable for use as a reference standard for impurity analysis and calibration of analytical instruments.
