Rare earths – Lanthanides

The so-called rare earth elements are a group of chemical elements of the lanthanide series, they are mixtures of oxides and hydroxides of the elements of block F of the periodic table of elements. These elements have very similar ionic radii and show equally similar chemical behaviors that make their separation difficult. 

Silmin iberica is specialized in the marketing and distribution of high purity rare earths-lanthanides for the industry.

The highly advanced processing capabilities of rare earths allow us to offer high purity materials, in order to satisfy the requirement for specific data by manufacturers who need very pure materials for technological and industrial applications.

​We are a trusted supplier in the manufacture of advanced materials.

Silmin Ibérica with its range of products, distributes and markets the
following high-quality rare earths and rare metals for the manufacture of various industrial products:

RARE METALS

GALLIUM

Silmin Ibérica markets and distributes high purity gallium metal in the following grades:
Gallium 4N (99.99 % purity) for metallurgical, chemical and solar uses.
Gallium 6N (purity 99.9999 %) and 7N gallium (purity 99.99999 %) for uses in electronic and compound semiconductors.
MBE grade gallium (purity 99.999999 %) for applications in molecular beam epitaxy.

gallium nitrate
Gallium Nitrate solutions are available in various concentrations, it is produced from high purity 4N gallium.
Gallium Nitrate is a custom made product, and as such specific data varies.
depending on customer requirements.
gallium oxide
Gallium trichloride

INDIAN
indian metal
Silmin Ibérica markets and distributes indium metal for low melting point alloys, solders, CIG and ITO objectives in the following purity degrees:

2N5 (99,5%)
4N5 (99,995%)
5N  (99,999%)

Indium was first used to manufacture bearings for aircraft engines. It is a component of low melting point alloys, but its main use today is as indium oxide and indium tin oxide (ITO) applied to glass as a conductive layer in optical-electronic devices (flat displays). High purity indium (6N and higher) has found applications in electronics, such as the single crystal InP.
