DYSPROSIUM
Natural Abundance, Stable Isobars Dy156, 0.0524%, Gd156 Dy158, 0.0902%, Gd158 Dy160, 2.294%, Gd160 Dy161, 18.88%, Er162 Dy162, 25.53%, Er164 Dy163, 24.97% Dy164, 28.18% The only compound which has been used in the separation of dysprosium isotopes is anhydrous dysprosium trichloride. The average charge consists of 150g DyCl3 in a style C-16 graphite charge bottle. The method of charge preparation and the recycle and recovery procedures developed for samarium is used for all rare earth elements with the exception of cerium. The rare earth techniques are described in detail only for samarium and cerium. |
