Neodymium is best known for its use in the strongest permanent magnets. NdFeB magnets are used in hard drives, headphones, and wind turbines.

About Neodymium

Best known for producing the strongest permanent magnets available, neodymium (Nd) is element 60 and a member of the lanthanide series. It lies in period 6 of the f-block, with an atomic mass of 144.24, the electron configuration [Xe] 4f⁴ 6s², and a Pauling electronegativity of 1.14. Neodymium-iron-boron magnets combine great strength with compact size, which is why they appear in hard-disk drives, headphones and loudspeakers, electric-vehicle motors, and wind-turbine generators. A soft, silvery metal that tarnishes in air, neodymium is solid at standard conditions and takes the characteristic +3 oxidation state.
