Product Name: Lanthanum Nitrate
Formula: La(NO3)3.6H2O
CAS No.: 10277-43-7
Molecular Weight: 432.92
Appearance: Off-white crystalline
Properties
Physical Properties: Lanthanum nitrate hexahydrate is a white or colorless crystal with deliquescence. It is highly soluble in water, and its aqueous solution is acidic. It can also dissolve in organic solvents such as ethanol.
Chemical Properties: Lanthanum nitrate is a strong oxidizing agent. When heated or reacted with other specific substances, it decomposes to produce lanthanum oxide, nitrogen oxides, and oxygen. It can react with alkalis to form lanthanum hydroxide precipitates and can also undergo complexation reactions with some organic reagents.
Production Process
Usually, lanthanum carbonate or lanthanum hydroxide is used as the raw material and reacted with nitric acid to prepare lanthanum nitrate. The reaction equations are as follows:
La2(CO3) 3 +6HNO3 =2La(NO3) 3 +3CO2 ↑+3H2O
La(OH)3 +3HNO3=La(NO3) 3+3H2O
After the reaction, a series of process operations such as evaporation and concentration, cooling and crystallization, filtration, and drying are carried out to obtain the lanthanum nitrate product.
Application Areas
Catalyst: It is used as a catalyst or an active component of catalysts in reactions such as catalytic cracking and hydro - desulfurization in the petrochemical industry, which can improve the efficiency and selectivity of reactions. It is also used in automobile exhaust purification catalysts, helping to reduce the emission of harmful gases.
Optical Materials: It is used in the manufacture of optical glass, lenses, and other optical components, which can improve the performance of optical materials, such as refractive index and dispersion. At the same time, it is also one of the important raw materials for preparing rare - earth luminescent materials, which can make the luminescent materials have better luminescent performance and stability.
Electronics Industry: It is used in the production of electronic ceramics, capacitors, and other electronic components, which can improve the performance and reliability of electronic components. For example, in multilayer ceramic capacitors, lanthanum nitrate can be used as an additive to improve the performance of ceramic dielectrics.
Agricultural Field: Lanthanum nitrate can be used as a micronutrient fertilizer for crops. An appropriate amount of lanthanum element can promote the growth and development of plants and improve the yield and quality of crops. For example, in the cultivation of crops such as rice and wheat, applying fertilizers containing lanthanum nitrate can enhance the stress resistance and photosynthesis of crops.
Other Fields: It is used as an analytical reagent in chemical analysis to determine fluorine, phosphate, etc. In the separation and purification process of rare - earth elements, lanthanum nitrate is also an important intermediate product. In addition, there are also some research and explorations in the biomedical field, such as its use in the preparation of certain drug carriers.
Packaging and Storage
Packaging: Generally, it is sealed and packed. Common packaging methods include using iron drums or cardboard drums lined with plastic bags to prevent the product from absorbing moisture in the air and deliquescing.
Storage: It should be stored in a cool, dry, and well - ventilated warehouse, away from fire and heat sources. Avoid storing it together with inflammables, reducing agents, acids, etc. to prevent redox reactions or other dangerous reactions. At the same time, pay attention to moisture - proof, and regularly check whether the packaging is intact to ensure the product quality.
