Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa).

Preparation

edit

Dysprosium can be prepared from the reaction of finely ground dysprosium, dysprosium hydride, or the dysprosium amalgam with nitrogen at 800–1000°C:[3][4]

2Dy + N2 → 2DyN

Physical properties

edit

Dypsrosium nitride forms gray crystals of cubic system; cell parameter a = 0.490 nm, Z = 4.[1] It is a good conductor of electricity and reacts with water. It is known for its magnetic properties and high melting point.
