Dysprosium single crystal 66Dy162.50
Discovered and isolated in 1886 by P.E. Lecoq de Boisbaudran at Paris, France.
[Greek: dysprositos = hard to obtain] French: dysprosiumGerman: dysprosium
Italian: disprosio
Spanish: disprosio
Description: Dysprosium is a hard, silvery metal of the so-called rare earth group (more correctly termed the lanthanides). It is oxidised by oxygen, reacts rapidly with cold water, and dissolves in acids. Dysprosium is used in alloys for making magnets.
