What to Consider When Buying Yttrium Metal?

1. Purity Grade

  • 99.99% (4N) is preferred for electronic, optical, or sputtering target applications.

  • 99.5%–99.9% is sufficient for most metallurgical and chemical processing uses.

2. Form Factor & Sizing

  • Chunks or rods for melting and alloying.

  • Foils or discs for vacuum evaporation.

  • Sputtering targets (bonded or unbonded) for thin film deposition.

3. Oxidation Sensitivity

  • Yttrium is air-sensitive and prone to oxidation; proper packaging and storage under inert gas or vacuum is critical.

4. Packaging & Traceability

  • Zhiyue provides inert-atmosphere or vacuum-sealed packaging to ensure long-term material integrity. Full traceability is available from production to delivery.
