The Uses of Lanthanum(III) nitrate hexahydrate

Starting material for the electrochemical synthesis of a LaMnO3 thin film coating on stainless steel substrates. A novel solvothermal process for formation of doped lanthanide oxysulfide, La2O2S, was developed in order to advance possible applications of this material in phosphors, fluorescent display tubes or heat transfer measurement.
Lanthanum Nitrate is mainly applied in specialty glass, water treatment and catalyst. Various compounds of Lanthanum and other rare-earth elements (Oxides, Chlorides, etc.) are components of various catalysis, such as petroleum cracking catalysts. Small amounts of Lanthanum added to steel improves its malleability, resistance to impact, and ductility, whereas addition of Lanthanum to Molybdenum decreases its hardness and sensitivity to temperature variations. Small amounts of Lanthanum are present in many pool products to remove the Phosphates that feed algae.

The Uses of Lanthanum(III) nitrate hexahydrate

Lanthanum(III) nitrate is utilized as a starting material for the electrochemical synthesis of a LaMnO3 thin film coating on stainless steel substrates. It is used as a catalyst for the chemoselective preparation of cyclic and acyclic dithioacetals. It is used to prepare lanthanum aluminate (LAO) thin films, LaF3 nanocrystals, and bis(indolyl) methanes from indoles.
