| 21. | Moseley was killed in World War I in 1915, years before hafnium was discovered.
|
| 22. | His thesis was " The Radioactive Decay of Hafnium and Thulium Isotopes ".
|
| 23. | Hafnium tetrachloride is volatile and can therefore easily be separated from the involatile zirconium trihalide.
|
| 24. | What is hafnium's cosmic history?
|
| 25. | Titanium, hafnium and zirconium stabilize the ? phase at room temperature when rapidly cooled.
|
| 26. | Hafnium is widely used in filaments and electrodes, as well as in some superalloys.
|
| 27. | Most of the hafnium produced is used in the production of control rods for nuclear reactors.
|
| 28. | Small additions of hafnium increase the adherence of protective oxide scales on nickel-based alloys.
|
| 29. | For example, hafnium is almost always present in quantities ranging from 1 to 4 %.
|
| 30. | Hafnium diboride is another such material.
