Oxidizes easily in air. Neodymium was discovered in 1885 by the Austrian chemist Karl Auer von Welsbach. He divided didyme - a mixture of two rare earth metals, difficult to separate due to the extreme closeness of their chemical properties and previously considered an individual chemical element - into neodymium and praseodymium. It was possible to obtain neodymium in its pure form, practically free from impurities of praseodymium, only in 1925. </div> <div>   </div>
