Rare Earth Chloride

Yttrium chloride can be used to manufacture ternary catalyst, ceramic material, intermediate of yttrium compound, chemical reagent, and in other industries.

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.

Cerium chloride can be used in pharmaceutical intermediates, cerium salt raw materials, cemented carbide additives, chemical reagents, and in other industries. It can also be used to prepare scintillation crystals, petroleum catalysts, automobile exhaust catalysts, organic synthesis and other materials. Cerium chloride can also be used to prepare metal cerium and cerium compounds.

1. Production of neodymium metal: Most common starting compound for the production of neodymium metal

2. Lasers and fiber amplifiers: it is a dopant not only of traditional silica-based optical fibers but of plastic fibers (dopedphotolime-gelatin, polyimide, polyethylene, etc.) as well.

3. Catalysis: used to combine with organic chemicals such as triethylaluminium, 2-propanol, and titanium dioxide

4. Corrosion protection: Neodymium (III) chloride is a corrosive inhibitor that is environmental friendly and much less toxic.

5. Labeling of organic molecules: Neodymium has strong luminescence, so neodymium chloride is often used as a source of Nd3+ ions as fluorescent labels in various physical and chemical reactions.

1. Widely applied in electronic industry and scientific research.

2. Used for extracting gadolinium and gadolinium compounds.

3. In crystal form, used as an active laser medium.
