Anhydrous Neodymium Chloride

Product Overview
Anhydrous Neodymium Chloride (NdCl₃) is a compound made of neodymium and chlorine, typically appearing as a pale purple solid. It is hygroscopic, meaning it absorbs moisture from the air and changes color. With a relatively high melting and boiling point, it is widely used in chemical, material, and biological research fields.

Product Features

• Hygroscopic:Absorbs moisture quickly when exposed to air, resulting in color change.
• High Solubility:Has excellent solubility in water.
• Stability:Shows good chemical stability and can be stored under specific conditions for extended periods.

Applications

• Pharmaceutical Synthesis:Used in the synthesis of pharmaceutical intermediates.
• Neodymium Metal Production:Used in the production of neodymium metal, which is essential in high-performance magnetic materials.
• Catalysts:Serves as a catalyst or precursor in organic chemical reactions.
• Synthetic Rubber:Used in the production of synthetic rubbers such as polybutene and polybutadiene.
• Ceramic Corrosion Testing:Employed as a corrosion reagent in ceramic testing.
• Fluorescent Labeling:Used in molecular biology to label DNA and other organic molecules for tracking with fluorescence microscopy.
