Jewellery made from one of the rarest elements in the universe
For many decades tantalum has been used in industry for high-temperature applications, in electronics and in the laboratory, and it is present, hidden and unobserved, in many objects of our daily lives - in cellular phones, radios, computers etc. But this exotic and many-sided metal harbours many more possibilities ...
Tantalum is one of the rarest elements in the earth's crust. In the solar system it is the rarest stable element altogether. Even gold and platinum are ten to twenty times more abundant. The isotope tantalum180 is supposed to be the rarest isotope of the whole universe.
In this context the current market price of tantalum comes as a surprise; 1 kg of tantalum costs not more than 1 - 2 kgs of silver, depending on quality.
Tantalum is fantastically corrosion-resistant, even more so than many noble metals! Tantalum is resistant to almost all kinds of acid, even to aqua regia. It is attacked only by hydrofluoric acid and by alkali melt. Contrary to popular lore presented mainly on the internet, tantalum does not belong to the group of noble metals, even if many of its chemical properties would support this opinion.
Due to its excellent bio-compatibility and its suitability for being incorporated in body tissue without repellence, the metal is also used for surgical implants. Welcome news for allergy patients - no case of tantalum allergy has yet been observed!
In cooperation with a renowned German manufacturer of jewellery we are now able to offer unique, highly valuable and yet affordable tantalum jewellery, which will fill all lovers of rare materials with enthusiasm. We use only selected, highly pure raw materials such as those used in research. All pieces are made entirely from the pure untreated metal. Emphasis is on the material – designs are deliberately unpretentious and ageless to underline the mysterious and exotic radiance of the rare element. All necklaces can be used by men and women

Manganese 2+ doped Zinc Barium phosphate glass.
This highly doped (10 mol% Mn2+) optical glass can be used as standard for spectroscopy. The pictures show the glass hemispheres under 365nm UV light and under daylight(below).
Today, I used up my humid P2O5 from glass making and prepared an acidic solution for anodizing some Titanium metal cubes. The result is quite nice and I just made these 3. Hurry up and get your favorite color now! www.smart-elements.com/shop/big-titanium-anodized-density-cube-10cm3-45-grams/

High pure Cesium chloride under Vacuum is being excited by a simple tesla coil. The white salt immediately turns blue under blueish glow. Apparently, chlorine atoms are "kicked" out of the CsCl lattice causing the salt to turn blue. Upon opening the ampoule, the immediate smell of chlorine is noticeable.
Thulium doped Zinc phosphate glass has a deep blue luminescence (~450nm) in the visual range @365nm UV excitation.
New! Solid 30mm spheres of 99.99% pure copper and 99.95% pure zirconium metal.
