Data for the table was obtained from the sources listed on the subject page and Wikipedia:WikiProject Elements but was reformatted and converted into SI units.

Magnetic Properties

In the introduction it states that Holmium has the highest magnetic permeability of any element and is there element and therefore is used for the polepieces of the strongest static magnets. It should say highest magnetic saturation moment. It is the moment rather than the permeability that is reason it is used in pole pieces for "strong" synthetic magnets. In the section Application Also magnetic strengthis a poorly defined quantity, it would be better to use magnetic moment or magnetic saturation moment

boiling point

Is the boiling point known to the nearest degree? The numbers in the article snd the box both look like false precision based on the nearest hundred or thousand (3000 K / 2600 Celsius). 46.188.244.112 (talk) 03:05, 25 August 2023 (UTC)
