europium

Orders have been flooding in for our Europium UltraGreen Glow Powder, it's hard to keep up!

Sounds like strontium aluminate glow powder (that's where the europium doping would come into play) with a heavy marketing spin.

Strontium aluminate doped with europium has been the standard in persistent phosphorescence for a while.

TIL that compact fluorescent lamp bulbs contained yttrium and/or europium as a phosphorescent material.

We've tried nearly every glow powder on the market and Europium UltraGlow is the only one deserving of the United Nuclear name.

I think some power electronics uses europium silicide (or was that erbium?) as a gate material, so maybe in inverters?

My first guess was element 63, so an europium isotope, but now that you mentioned it, it might also just refer to nickel 63.

Maybe not hundreds of kilograms, but enough to get the major science results (moon is evolved not primitive, oxygen isotopes, volatile depletion, europium anomaly).

If I remember correctly, they said that the coating uses europium.

I remmeber a decade back, a happy friendly idiosyncratic engineer in a warehouse in SF I know very well, who showed me gleefully all the objects he had cvered in Europium powder.

:-) Joke aside, wikipedia says: > Europium is one of the rarest of the rare-earth elements on Earth Maybe we should regulate its use?

Why are rhenium, rhodium, lanthanum, europium, dysprosium, thulium, ytterbium, yttrium, strontium, thallium, magnesium and manganese so irreplacable?

Now I wonder how much inflation would be necessary to make "mining" europium from low denomination Euro banknotes profitable.

Europium: Flourescent lamps, red phosphors in cathode ray tubes, anti-counterfeiting agent due to unique flourescent properties.

I wonder if the radium dial paint in my Baby Ben clock would emit enough energy to activate the Europium?

European bank notes contain a little Europium, a rare-earth element.
