List of Metals - The Periodic Table
Nearly 75% of all the elements in the Periodic Table are classified as metals. Examples of metals are gold, aluminium, copper, iron, lead, silver, platinum, uranium and zinc. In the Periodic Table metals are separated into the groups detailed in the following list:
- Alkali Metals
- Alkaline Earth Metals
- Transition Metals
- Other Metals
- Rare Earth Elements
List of Metals - Alloys
What are alloys? Alloys made of mixtures of at least one metal with either other metals, or with non-metals. Examples of some common alloys are detailed in the following list:
- Gunmetal (an alloy made from a mixture of copper, tin, and zinc)
- Steel (an alloy made from a mixture of iron and carbon)
- Bronze (an alloy made from a mixture of copper and tin)
- Brass (an alloy made from a mixture of copper and zinc)
A nuclide is a species of an atom with a specific number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus, for example carbon-13 with 6 protons and 7 neutrons. The nuclide concept (referring to individual nuclear species) emphasizes nuclear properties over chemical properties, whereas the isotope concept (grouping all atoms of each element) emphasizes chemical over nuclear. Samarium isotopes are used in various applications. Sm-144 is used for the production of the therapeutic radioisotope Sm-145. Sm-147 has been bombarded with Ca-40 to produce the short-lived radioisotopes Pb-182. Sm-148 has been used to study the giant monopole resonance while Sm-149 has been used in a filter for polarizing thermal neutrons.

Samarium is a rare earth element that - indirectly - has the distinction of being the first naturally occurring chemical element to be named after a living person. Samarium was isolated from the mineral Samarskite which was discovered near the small town of Miass in the southern Ural mountains in 1847. Samarium is one of the rare earth elements used to make carbon arc lights which are used in the motion picture industry for studio lighting and projector lights. Samarium also makes up about 1% of Misch metal, a material that is used to make flints for lighters.
List of Metals - Discovery and History of Metals
Specific Facts and Information about the discovery and history of metals are detailed on the page of each metal, links are provided below in the List of Metals. Some metals were available to and used by some of the oldest civilisations including the Ancient Egyptians, Ancient Greeks and the Ancient Romans. Right up to the Middle Ages it was believed that there were only seven metals. These special metals are referred to as the 'Metals of Antiquity'. The ancient 'Metals of Antiquity' together with their approximate dates of discovery are Gold (6000BC), Copper (9000BC), Silver (4000BC), Lead (6400BC), Tin (3000BC), Iron (1500BC) and Mercury (1500BC). The term 'metal' is derived from the Greek word 'metallon' meaning to excavate, as in mines and pits. The materials obtained from various mines were called metalleia by Plato.

Dublin, April 26, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The 'Global Rare-Earth Metals Market by Type (Lanthanum, Cerium, Neodymium, Praseodymium, Samarium, Europium, Others), Application (Permanent Magnets, Metals Alloys, Polishing, Additives, Catalysts, Phosphors), and Region - Forecast to 2026' report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.
The global rare-earth metals market is projected to grow from USD 5.3 billion in 2021 to USD 9.6 billion by 2026, at a CAGR of 12.33% during the forecast period.
The global rare-earth metals market comprises major manufacturers, such as are Lynas Corporation (Australia), Alkane Resources ltd (Australia), Arafura Resources Ltd (Australia), China Minmetals Rare Earth Co Ltd (China), Avalon Advanced Materials, Inc (Canada), Iluka Resource Ltd (Australia), Canada Rare Earth Corporation (Canada).
The increasing use of rare-earth elements that are used in the permanent magnet application are likely to drive the rare-earth metals market. APAC is the fastest-growing market for rare-earth metals due to increase in production and consumption in China. Significant usage of permanent magnets offer a huge impetus to these advanced materials, are expected to drive the rare-earth metals market in the region.
In terms of value, Neodymium oxide segment is projected to lead the global rare-earth metals market through 2026
The Neodymium oxide segment is projected to lead the rare-earth metals market, in terms of value, during the forecast period. Neodymium oxide is used to produce magnets which are found in most modern vehicles and aircraft as well as popular consumer electronics, such as headphones, microphones, and computer discs. It is used in high-strength permanent magnets that are also known as neodymium-iron-boron (NdFeB) magnets and are one of the strongest magnets in the world. Incresing use of Clean energy application has driven the market.
The Phosphors segment is projected to be the fastest-growing segment by applications throughout the forecast period
The Phosphors segment, by application, is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period. Phosphors used in many applications that require color in the light exhibited, namely, cathode ray tube displays, fluorescent lamps, and other applications. The important elements in this sector are europium, terbium, and yttrium. Phosphors are used to convert the incident radiation into the light of designed colors.
This is based on the properties of the elements that are included in the phosphors. The demand for rare-earth oxide phosphor products is expected to increase, due to the government policies in US, Canada, China, among other countries, and the European Union, where the incandescent lamps are being replaced with fluorescent and LED lamps.
In terms of value, the Asia rare-earth metals market is projected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period
APAC is the largest producer and consumer of rare-earth metals across the globe, with almost all major manufacturers and end-use companies present in the region. APAC has witnessed tremendous growth in the past few years, driven by the growing population, favorable investment policies, growing economies, and government initiatives directed at promoting electronics and automobile industries in the region.
APAC is the top region in terms of total rare-earth material consumption due to rapidly increasing demand in China, which accounts for maximum global rare-earth consumption. It was the largest consumer of rare-earth elements in 2019, with an estimated market revenue of over USD 5.2 billion.
The region is also expected to witness the fastest-growth in terms of consumption due to growing industrialization and extraction activities in China. According to the World Bank, APAC is the fastest-growing region in terms of both population and economic growth.
The region has experienced significant growth in the last decade and accounted for approximately 34% of the global GDP in 2019. According to the Population Reference Bureau, China, India, and other emerging APAC countries had a combined population exceeding 4 billion in 2019, which is projected to become an increasingly important driver for global consumption over the next two decades.
