Ytterbium: Oxide Reduced by Lanthanum at 1020 °C in Vacuum, Metal Distilled Off (Shindo and Yagi, US 2010/0260640)

Ytterbium boils far more easily than lanthanum. Heated with lanthanum in a vacuum, ytterbium oxide gives up its oxygen to the lanthanum, and the freed ytterbium leaves as vapour and condenses in a cooler zone, while lanthanum oxide stays behind. Result: ytterbium metal ingots; 20 kg of distillate in the patent's run, low in sodium, potassium and lithium. Source: Y. Shindo and K. Yagi, US patent application 2010/0260640 (2010), Example 1. Not given: how much lanthanum, the vacuum, the time, crucible and condenser materials. Picture drawn by Youblob.

Reduce in vacuum at 1020 °C

Heat the charge in a vacuum to 1020 °C: Yb2O3 + 2 La -> 2 Yb (vapour) + La2O3. Ours: a vacuum induction furnace; the vacuum level and time are not given.

Condense the ytterbium at 200-600 °C

Catch the ytterbium vapour on a condenser held at 200-600 °C. Most of it settles in the 300-500 °C part; the 200-300 °C part carries the least sodium and lithium. Ours: a tantalum condenser plate.

Melt into ingots under argon

Take the distillate off the condenser, melt it in a crucible at 950 °C under a slight pressure of argon, and let it solidify into an ingot.
