Investigating Lanthanum Flows and Stocks in China: A Dynamic Material Flow Analysis
|
|
|
Accompanying the differences in applications between different REEs, an imbalance between the natural abundance and the limited market demand can arise, and it is often referred to as the Balance Problem. In fact, the increasing use of REEs with relatively low concentrations in ores has resulted in a notable surplus of elements that are with higher concentrations, such as lanthanum and cerium (Read more) |
