Gadolinium trinitrate hydrate - Introduction
Gadolinium nitrate(Gadolinium nitrate) is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Gd(NO3)3. The following is a description of its nature, use, preparation and safety information:
Nature:
Gadolinium nitrate are colorless crystals that can be crystallized from aqueous solution. It is hygroscopic and decomposes when heated to produce nitrous oxide gas and gadolinium oxide. Gadolinium nitrate are relatively stable in air, but are susceptible to hydrolysis when exposed to moisture.
Use:
Gadolinium nitrate have several applications in chemical research, catalysts, and materials science. It is often used as a starting material for the preparation of other gadolinium compounds, in particular for the synthesis of Gadolinium oxides and gadolinium complexes. In addition, Gadolinium nitrate can also be used to prepare high purity gadolinium metal.
Method:
Gadolinium nitrate can be prepared by reacting gadolinium hydroxide with nitric acid. First, gadolinium hydroxide is dissolved in dilute nitric acid, then crystallized and dried to obtain a Gadolinium nitrate.
Safety Information:
Gadolinium nitrate is a water-soluble substance that may cause irritation to the eyes, skin and respiratory system when in close contact. Personal protective equipment should be worn during handling, including chemical protective gloves, goggles and protective clothing. At the same time, should be away from fire and heat sources, to avoid contact with combustibles. Follow appropriate laboratory practices and waste disposal methods at the time of use to ensure safe use and storage of Gadolinium nitrate.
