Product Name :Cerium (iii) Nitrate Hexahydrate
CAS Number : 10294-41-4
Molecular Formula :H12CeNO9
Molecular Weight : 310.2115
EINECS : 233-297-2
Appearance : Colourless Crystals
Physical Properties:
Cerium nitrate hexahydrate is a colorless or light - red crystal with deliquescence. Its relative density is about 2.28.
It is highly soluble in water and ethanol, and its solubility in water increases with the rise in temperature.
Cerium nitrate is a strong oxidizing agent and has strong oxidizing properties under acidic conditions. It decomposes when heated, producing cerium dioxide, nitrogen oxides, and oxygen. It can react with alkalis to form cerium hydroxide precipitates and undergo double - decomposition reactions with some metal salts.
Production Process
Usually, cerium carbonate or cerium hydroxide is used as the raw material and reacted with nitric acid to prepare cerium nitrate. The reaction equations are as follows:
Ce2 (CO3) 3 +6HNO3 =2Ce(NO3) 3 +3CO2 ↑+3H O
Ce(OH) 3+3HNO3=Ce(NO3) 3+3H2O
After the reaction, the product is obtained through process steps such as evaporation and concentration, cooling and crystallization, filtration, and drying.
Application Areas
Catalyst Field: Cerium nitrate is an important raw material for catalysts. It is used in automotive exhaust purification catalysts, which can improve the activity and stability of the catalysts and effectively reduce the emission of harmful gases in the exhaust. It is also used in reactions such as catalytic cracking and hydro - refining in the petrochemical industry.
Glass Industry: In glass production, cerium nitrate is used as a glass decolorizer and fining agent. It can effectively remove the color caused by impurities such as iron in the glass, improving the transparency and quality of the glass. At the same time, it plays a fining role in the glass melting process, promoting the discharge of bubbles in the glass liquid.
Electronics Industry: It is used to prepare electronic ceramic materials and phosphor powders. In electronic ceramics, it can improve the properties of ceramics, such as dielectric and piezoelectric properties. As one of the raw materials for phosphor powders, it can make the phosphor powders have better luminescent properties.
Other Fields: In chemical analysis, it can be used as an analytical reagent for the determination of elements such as fluorine and iodine. In the separation and purification process of rare - earth metals, cerium nitrate is also often used as an intermediate raw material. In addition, it also has certain application research in the medical field, such as being used in the synthesis of certain drugs or as a pharmaceutical excipient.
Packaging and Storage
Packaging: Generally, it is sealed in a plastic - lined bag and then packed in an iron drum or cardboard drum to prevent the product from getting damp and coming into contact with air.
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 chemical reactions that may cause danger. At the same time, pay attention to moisture - proof to prevent the product from deliquescing and deteriorating.
