Product Description

Basic Information
Chemical Formula: HoCl3
Product Name: Holmium Chloride
CAS Number:  10138-62-2 for anhydrous holmium chloride; 14914-84-2 for holmium chloride hexahydrate.
Appearance: Anhydrous holmium chloride is a white or light - yellow powder; holmium chloride hexahydrate is a colorless or light - green crystal.
Molecular Weight: Approximately 271.30 for anhydrous holmium chloride; approximately 379.40 for holmium chloride hexahydrate.

Physicochemical Properties
Density: The density of anhydrous holmium chloride is about 3.77 g/mL (25ºC).
Melting Point: The melting point of anhydrous holmium chloride is about 721ºC.
Solubility: It is soluble in water, and its aqueous solution is acidic. It is also soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol. Holmium chloride hexahydrate will gradually lose its crystal water when heated.

Preparation Method
It is usually prepared by the reaction of holmium hydroxide (Ho(OH)3) with hydrochloric acid. Holmium hydroxide is added to the hydrochloric acid solution, and a neutralization reaction occurs to form a holmium chloride solution. Holmium chloride hexahydrate can be obtained through operations such as evaporation, concentration, and cooling crystallization. To obtain anhydrous holmium chloride, holmium chloride hexahydrate needs to be heated in a hydrogen chloride gas stream to inhibit its hydrolysis.

Uses
Magnetic Materials: It is used in the preparation of some magnetic materials, which helps to adjust the magnetic properties of the materials. It can be used to manufacture high - performance permanent magnets, magnetic recording materials, etc., and plays a role in the fields of electronic equipment and communication technology.
Optical Field: It can be used to prepare optical materials such as optical glass and laser crystals. In laser technology, holmium chloride can be used as a component of the laser medium to generate laser light of a specific wavelength, which has important applications in medicine, industrial processing, and scientific research.
Catalyst: It can be used as a catalyst in some organic chemical reactions, which can affect the reaction rate and selectivity and play a role in improving the efficiency of chemical reactions and the quality of products.
Scientific Research Application: As a rare - earth chloride, it is a commonly used reagent in scientific research, which is used to study the chemical and physical properties of holmium and explore its potential applications in new materials, new energy, and other fields.

Storage and Packaging
Storage: It needs to be stored in a sealed container and placed in a cool, dry, and well - ventilated environment. Avoid long - term contact with water and air to prevent deliquescence and deterioration.
Packaging: Common packaging methods include vacuum packaging (such as 1 kg, 5 kg packaging), plastic bottle packaging (suitable for small - dose products), cardboard drum packaging (generally 25 kg or 50 kg packaging), etc. It can also be custom - packaged according to the special requirements of customers.
