	dysprosium - HighBeam Encyclopedia
		Dysprosium and its compounds are among the most highly susceptible to magnetization of all substances and are used in special magnetic alloys.
		Dysprosium is used with argon in mercury-vapor lamps to give a higher light output and balance the color spectrum.
		Although dysprosium was discovered (but not isolated) in 1886 by P. Lecoq de Boisbaudran, a French chemist, it did not become available in relatively pure form until the 1950s.

	Dysprosium Summary
		Dysprosium is a rare earth element that has a metallic, bright silver luster, relatively stable in air at room temperature, but dissolving readily in dilute or concentrated mineral acids with the emission of hydrogen.
		Dysprosium oxide (also known as dysprosia), with nickel cement compounds, which absorb neutrons readily without swelling or contracting under prolonged neutron bombardment, is used for cooling rods in nuclear reactors.
		Dysprosium is never encountered as a free element, but is found in many minerals, including xenotime, fergusonite, gadolinite, euxenite, polycrase, blomstrandine, monazite and bastnasite; often with erbium and holmium or other rare earth elements.
