Description for Rare Earth Elements
Hardcover. This book deals with Rare Earth Elements, applying basic research data on neodymium used in permanent magnets. Surprisingly, analysis showed that hard drives, mobile phones, wind turbines and e-mobility account for much less use of neodymium than supposed. Series: Springer Theses. Num Pages: 171 pages, 12 black & white illustrations, 20 colour illustrations, biography. BIC Classification: PNV; RBGL; RGCM; TGM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 242 x 166 x 14. Weight in Grams: 382.
This thesis deals with Rare Earth Elements (REE), especially with neodymium used in permanent magnets, from a very scientific basis by providing basic research data. Despite the fact that REE are newsworthy and very important elements for a considerable bandwidth of todays’ technologies, accompanied by the monopolistic supply-situation and Chinese politics, there are inexplicable data discrepancies about REE which have been recognized frequently but usually have not been addressed accordingly. So this analysis started with the hypothesis that the four application areas, namely computer hard disk drives (HDD), mobile phones, wind turbines and e-mobility (automotive traction), account for about 80% ...
