Terbium

Rare earth element supplied for permanent magnets and phosphor applications

Rare earth element that extends permanent magnet performance at elevated temperatures

Globe Metal supplies terbium for manufacturers who need to maintain permanent magnet performance across a wide operating temperature range. Small additions of terbium to neodymium-iron-boron magnets significantly improve coercivity at elevated temperatures — a property that is particularly important for electric vehicle drivetrains and industrial motors.

Terbium is also used in phosphors for LED lighting and display technology, and in magneto-optical materials for laser systems. We supply in metal and oxide forms with the supply chain documentation that current procurement requirements demand.

Forms supplied

Terbium is supplied in forms suited to permanent magnet, phosphor, and specialty materials applications, including:

Typical applications

Performance enhancement in NdFeB permanent magnets for EVs and motors

Phosphors for LED lighting and display technology

Magneto-optical materials for laser and optical systems
