Applications 

Praseodymium Carbonate Pr₂(CO₃)₃ is a green rare earth salt. It is used as a raw material for other Praseodymium compounds. It is used in pigment in glass, optic and ceramic industries. It is highly valued in glass and ceramic production as a bright yellow pigment because of its optimum reflectance at 560 nm. Praseodymium-doped glass, also called didymium glass is used in welding, blacksmithing, and glass-blowing goggles due to its blocking property of infrared radiation.
