| General description: | Bismuth is a silvery, very brittle metal with a high metallic luster. In the periodic table, it is next to lead. Bismuth has a variety of applications, including medicine, materials synthesis, organic synthesis, and catalysis . It is used in the production of malleable iron and as a catalyst in the manufacture of acrylic fibers . Additionally, bismuth promotes noble metal-based catalysts for the selective oxidation of alcohols, aldehydes and carbohydrates with molecular oxygen in liquid phases. |
