Rhenium Description

Rhenium is a rare, lustrous, silvery-white metallic element with the atomic number 75. Situated right after tungsten on the periodic table, rhenium is one of the heaviest metals, with an exceptionally high density of 21g/cc. This makes it invaluable as a high-performance alloying additive. When alloyed with platinum, rhenium catalyzes petroleum reforming to produce high-octane, lead-free gasoline. Rhenium alloys also provide improved properties in superalloys used for turbine engines.

In nature, rhenium is one of the rarest stable elements. Global production is less than 100 metric tons per year. Rhenium is primarily obtained as a byproduct of molybdenum refinement. Extracting rhenium is difficult due to its low concentrations and lack of high-yield ores. This scarcity makes rhenium one of the most expensive metals, valued for its unique properties including high melting point, stability, and strength at high temperatures. With constant demand and limited supply, rhenium remains a strategically critical material for advanced technologies ranging from aerospace and defense to petrochemical industries.

QSAM's Rhenium sputter targets

For Rhenium sputter target, forged and rolled metal materials are considered better than raw ingots produced by powder metallurgy for its high density and less gas phase impurities. QSAM is a professional supplier of sputter targets and other deposition materials. Although only in limited quantity and size, we are proud to say rolled rhenium plate are in stock. So we could provide high quality Rhenium sputter targets in flat form with very short lead time and competitive price. Please contact us for price quote of various sizes of Re sputter targets.

Since Rhenium is a very expensive material, sputter targets could be made to as thin as 1mm for lower cost without increasing unit price. For typical high density Rhenium sputter targets, we charge roughly $31/g for the finished sputter target.

Indium bonding to regular size or custom made backing plate is available, but not suggested for metal,e.g. rhenium sputter target.
