Chemical Properties

purple crystals, crystalline powder or chunks

Uses

Neodymium(III) chloride hexahydrate may be used as a source of Nd3+ ions, to be used to dope AgBr crystals, known to exhibit lasing effects.

Purification Methods

Neodynium chloride forms large purple prisms from concentrated solutions of dilute HCl. They are soluble in H2O (2.46 parts in 1 part of H2O) and EtOH, and lose H2O at 160o.

Hydrothermal synthesis and crystal structures of three novel lanthanide coordination polymers with glutarate and 1,10-phenanthroline

The first series of lanthanide coordination polymers with glutarate (glu) and 1,10-phenanthroline (phen), [Nd2(glu)3(phen)2]n 1,[Tb(glu)(phen)Cl]n 2 and [Ho(glu)(phen)Cl]n 3, have been prep

Effect of methanol on the dissolution of neodymium oxide in hydrochloric acid solutions

The effect of methanol on the solubility of Nd2O3 in HCl medium in the temperature range of 25-55°C were studied. HCl-CH 3OH was observed to be a better solvent than HCl-CH 3OH-H2O and hydrochloric acid for the dissolution of Nd2O3 mainly due to prevention of neodymium hydroxide and dissolution increased with increase of HCl concentration even at high HCl concentrations. Presence of methanol in the medium was determined to cause corresponding decreases in conductivity, ESCE, pH values with corresponding increase in ER values. Neodymium compounds formed in HCl-CH3OH medium at 25°C were isolated and identified using X-ray diffraction, thermal and chemical analysis methods and their thermal behaviour were investigated between 25-1100°C. NdCl3 × x 1CH3OH and NdCl3 × x 2CH 3OH × 4.14H2O (x 1 + x 2 = 2.8) were formed in non-aqueous medium and these compounds were converted into NdCl3, NdCl2.37 and NdCl3 × 0.47CH 3OH with complete and partial loss of water and methanol around 240°C respectively. Methanol was completely removed around 390°C with formation of NdCl2.37 (77.5%) and NdOCl (22.5%) and NdOCl was detected as the major stable phase above 700°C.
