    Applications
    • High purity cadmium is used to grow CdTe, CdZnTe single crystals or to prepare compound CdTe.
    • High purity cadmium is a necessary raw material for preparing infrared detectors (MCT detectors - HgCdTe / CdZnTe).
    • High purity cadmium can be used to prepare cadmium telluride solar cells.
    • The alloy of silver, indium and cadmium can be used as the control rod of atomic reactor (neutron absorption).
    • Cadmium compounds can be used in the manufacture of (yellow) pigments, plastic stabilizers, phosphors, pesticides, fungicides, paints, etc.
    • It can be used for electroplating and preparation of rechargeable batteries.
