Praseodymium is a soft, silvery-white metal that belongs to the rare earth metals. It has a high resistance to heat, and does not corrode easily. Praseodymium is used in the production of glass and ceramics, as well as in catalysts for chemical reactions. It can be found in the form of praseodymium oxide or praseodymium chloride and reacts with hydrogen to form a reddish-brown compound. Praseodymium also emits light when heated, which is due to an intramolecular hydrogen reaction. This property can be used for analytical purposes by spectroscopic analysis or by using lasers. Praseodymium has coordination geometry of square planar with four ligands in one plane (Nd(OH)4). The human osteosarcoma cell was found to have a signal peptide sequence at the N-terminal end of the protein that regulates its transport across

Praseodymium is used as an alloying constituent for alloys used to make permanent magnets and flints. Along with neodymium, praseodymium is used to manufacture yellow glass which can be used as eye protection (e.g. for welders).
