Cadmium (Cd) Powder
Introduction
Cadmium is a silver-white lustrous metal, which has good toughness and ductility. It is practically insoluble in water but some cadmium salts are water soluble. Powdered cadmium will burn and can release corrosive fumes. AEM offers a range from Cadmium metal ingots, rods, and powder to Cadmium compounds.
