Yttrium Metal 99.9% is widely applied in making sputtering target, it increase the strengths of alloys of metals such as Chromium, Aluminium, and Magnesium. It is also used to increase the strength of Aluminium and Magnesium alloys. The addition of Yttrium to alloys generally improves workability, adds resistance to high-temperature recrystallization and significantly enhances resistance to high-temperature oxidation.
