As a magnesium alloy, a small quantity of thorium can be used for its. hardening and lightweight properties, making it ideal for the aerospace industry.1 One problem. with thorium is its mildly radioactive nature, producing concerns over its safety and potential. harmful effects.
Thorium is also used to coat tungsten filaments used in electronic devices, such at television sets. When bombarded with neutrons, thorium-232 becomes thorium-233, which eventually decays into uranium-233 through a series of beta decays. Uranium-233 is a fissionable material and can be used as a nuclear fuel. Thorium oxide (ThO2), one of thorium's compounds, has many uses. It is primarily used in a type of lantern mantel known as a Welsbach mantle.
