Rare earth metals (REM) occupy a special and important place in our lives. This became especially noticeable during the rapid development of industry in the industrial era of the twentieth century. The tendency of development of the rare-earth metals market certainly remains in the XXI century. According to experts estimates the industry demand for chemical compounds based on them will tend to grow during the nearest years until it reaches the market balance. At the same time, the practical use of high-purity rare-earth metals requires the most accurate understanding of the physical properties of metals, especially magnetic ones. Despite a certain decline in interest in the study of high-purity REM single crystals during the last decade, a number of scientific groups (Ames Lab, Lomonosov Moscow State University (MSU), Baikov Institute of Metallurgy and Materials Science Russian Academy of Science (RAS)) are still conducting high-purity studies on high-purity metal samples. The present article is a combination of a review work covering the analysis of the main works devoted to the study of heavy REMs from gadolinium to thulium, as well as original results obtained at MSU. The paper considers the electronic properties of metals in terms of calculating the density of states, analyzes the regularities of the magnetic phase diagrams of metals, gives the original dependences of the Neel temperature and tricritical temperatures for Gd, Tb, Dy, Er, Ho, Tm, and also introduces a phenomenological parameter that would serve as an indicator of the phase transformation in heavy REMs.

With lanthanum chloride solution as raw material, and use the hydrogen peroxide of clean and pollution-freeobtained from oxidation reaction as auxiliary reagent, and with the carrier gas together form spray pyrolysis to obtain lanthanum oxide. On the one hand, in the hydrogen peroxide system, the temperature of direct pyrolysis reaction of lanthanum chloride solution decreased obviously, The reaction temperature is decreased from 1280°C to 1000°C or less. That reduce the energy consumption and simplify the requirements of pyrolysis equipment technology. The production process does not use NH3.H2O and NaOH to precipitate. It does not produce the traditional process of NH4+, Na+ to pollute water. It can greatly reduce the damage to the environment, and can product with high yield, high purity of the rare earth oxide. This method not only applies to the pyrolysis of the rare earth chloride solution, also applies to metal chloride solution, such as FeCl3, AlCl3, NiCl2. It was shown that the reaction temperature has been effectively reduced, VLaCl3: VH2O2 with 1: 1.5 can get high purity of La2O3.

The purity of rare earth metals is one of the most important factors to research and develop high technique materials. However, high purity rare earth metals are not easily achieved. This review summarizes the preparation and purification methods of rare earth metals. First, the preparation principle and process of molten salt electrolysis and metal thermal reduction are introduced. The main sources of metallic impurities and interstitial impurities in rare earth metals as well as the action mechanism of reducing the concentration of different impurities are analyzed and summarized. Then, the purification principle and process of vacuum distillation, arc melting, zone melting, and solid state electromigration are also discussed. Furthermore, the removal effect and function rule of metallic impurities and interstitial impurities in rare earth metals are outlined. Finally, the crucial issues in the development of high purity rare earth metals are put forward, and the development direction of high purity rare earth metals in future are pointed out on this basis.
