Product Name: Rubidium

Cas No.: 7440-17-7

MF: Rb

MW: 85.47

Appearance:

A soft silvery metal.

Description:

Rubidium which is represented by the atomic symbol Rb with an atomic number of 37 is being explored because it has properties which makes it a liquid and conducts current at room temperature. Possible uses under development include usage in ion engines for space vehicles, a working fluid for vapor turbines, and usage in thermoelectric generators, Because rubidium has good conductivity qualities, it may have a future use in thin film batteries.
