Misch Metal

Misch Metal is an alloy of cerium (50%), lanthanum (25%), neodymium (18%), praseodymium (5%), and other rare earth metals to improve the physical properties of an existing alloy. Misch metal is mixed with iron to improve its malleability. It is added to copper alloys to make them harder. Mischmetal is added to aluminum alloys to make them stronger. In combination with magnesium alloys, mischmetal reduces creep. Nickel alloys are added to reduce oxidation.
Typical Applications
