Basic Information
Chemical Formula: EuCl3
Product Name: Europium chloride
CAS Number: 10025-76-0 (anhydrous europium chloride); 13759-92-7 (europium chloride hexahydrate)
Appearance: Anhydrous europium chloride is a yellow solid, and the hexahydrate is a white crystal.
Molecular Weight: 258.32 (anhydrous); 366.32 (hexahydrate)
Physicochemical Properties
Density: 4.89 g/mL (25ºC, anhydrous)
Melting Point: 623ºC (anhydrous)
Solubility: It is soluble in water and ethanol, and slightly soluble in tetrahydrofuran. Europium chloride has a strong water - absorbing property. When the anhydrous substance is exposed to humid air, it will quickly absorb water and turn into the hexahydrate. Its aqueous solution is neutral to methyl orange and acidic to litmus.
Uses
Scientific Research Field: It is an important reagent for scientific research, used in biochemical research, etc. For example, it is used as a starting material in some studies to prepare other europium compounds.
Catalyst: It belongs to the family of moderately strong Lewis acids and can act as a catalyst in certain oxidation and reduction processes. It has special uses in chemical systems using divalent and zero - valent reagents as well as organometallic intermediates.
Material Preparation: It is used to prepare organometallic compounds of europium, such as bis(pentamethylcyclopentadienyl)europium(II) and other complexes. It can also be used to prepare other europium salts, which are then used in the preparation of optical materials, electronic materials, etc.
Storage Method
It should be stored in a sealed container in a cool and dry place to avoid moisture. It is preferably stored in an inert gas (such as nitrogen or argon) environment to prevent it from absorbing water and deliquescing.
Packaging
There are usually various packaging specifications, such as vacuum - packed 1, 2, 5, 25, 50 kilograms / piece; cardboard - drum - packed 25, 50 kilograms / piece; woven - bag - packed 25, 50, 500, 1000 kilograms / piece, etc. Customized packaging can be provided according to user requirements.
