Lanthanum Metal is the very important raw material in producing Hydrogen Storage Alloys for NiMH batteries and is also used to produce other pure Rare Earth metals and specialty alloys. Small amounts of Lanthanum added to Steel improves its malleability, resistance to impact, and ductility; Small amounts of Lanthanum are present in many pool products to remove the Phosphates that feed algae. Lanthanum Metal can be further processed into various shapes of ingots, pieces, wires, foils, slabs, rods, discs and powder.
