Cadmium powder
Special properties
High reflectivity: Cadmium metal powder can produce high reflectivity and can reflect visible light and infrared radiation. Therefore, it is widely used in making high reflectivity and high brightness automotive coatings and solar shielding materials.
High density: Cadmium metal powder has a density of 8.65 g/cm³, which is much higher than many other non-metallic materials. This makes Cadmium metal powder exhibit unique properties in some specific applications.
High temperature resistance: Cadmium metal powder can withstand high temperatures due to its very high melting point, which can be as high as 321 °C. It does not lose its metallic luster and reflective properties at high temperatures.
Cadmium metal powder is widely used in various industrial fields
Automotive coatings: Cadmium metal powder can increase the reflectivity and three-dimensional sense of automotive paint, while also increasing the depth and brightness of its color.
Solar shielding materials: Cadmium metal powder can effectively reflect visible light and infrared radiation, and can withstand high temperatures, making it an ideal choice for solar shielding materials.
Printing inks: Cadmium metal powder can be used in printing inks to increase the gloss and color depth of printed products.
Electronic components: Cadmium metal powder can be mixed with other metal materials to make electronic components, such as electric control switches, thin film electric field transistors, etc.
Decorative items: Cadmium metal powder can be used for surface covering of various decorative items such as ceramics, glass, plastics, etc., to produce a bright metallic luster.
