Rhenium ay isang lubhang bihirang metal na may maraming mga katangian na gawin itong natatanging. Ito ay madalas na ginagamit sa malakas na engine at gumaganap ng isang kritikal na papel sa maraming mga kemikal reaksyon. Maaari mong mahanap ang rhenium sa parehong isang dalisay na form at bilang bahagi ng marami sa mga popular na alloys ngayon. It can prove to be beneficial to those working in an assortment of industries, kabilang ang, but not limited to the aerospace industry, the petroleum industry, at higit pa. Here are some more interesting facts about rhenium.
Rhenium was named after a river in Germany.
Rhenium was first discovered way back in 1925 by a trio of scientists named Otto Berg, Walter Noddack, and Ida Tacke Noddack. They named it after the Rhine River, which is located in Germany. They originally discovered it in a handful of minerals and ores.
Rhenium has very high boiling and melting points.
Of all the elements in the world, rhenium has the highest boiling point. Its resistance to heat makes it an ideal element to use in jet engines and other places in which it’ll be exposed to extreme heat. Rhenium also has the third-highest melting point of all the elements. tungsten and carbon are the only two elements that have higher melting points than rhenium. Bukod pa rito, rhenium has the fourth-highest density of all elements.
Rhenium is rarer than most other elements.
There is only about 40 sa 50 tons of rhenium produced every year. The majority of it comes from ores that are found in Chile. It’s believed to be one of the rarest elements situated in the Earth’s crust. The crust contains somewhere between one-half and one part per billion of rhenium.
