Dysprosium titanate

Dysprosium titanate (Dy2Ti2O7) is an inorganic compound, a ceramic of the titanate family, with pyrochlore structure. Its CAS number is CASREF|CAS=68993-46-4.

Dysprosium titanate, like holmium titanate and holmium stannate, is a spin ice material.

Dysprosium titanate (Dy2TiO5) is being investigated as a new material for nuclear reactor control rods.
