Lanthanum Chloride

Lanthanum chloride is a white crystal, granular, or block crystal in appearance. It is easy to dissolve in water and ethanol, it has deliquescence, so it should be kept in an airtight condition.

Applications of Lanthanum Chloride

Lanthanum chloride can be used in petroleum cracking catalysts, an intermediate of lanthanum products, magnetic materials, chemical reagents, and in other industries. It can also be used to prepare scintillation crystals. Cerium doped lanthanum chloride crystals (LaCl3: Ce3 +) are excellent scintillation materials, which can be used to prepare petroleum cracking catalysts or Lewis acid in organic synthesis.
