General Description

Scandium nitrate is a chemical compound with the formula Sc(NO3)3. It is a white crystalline solid and is soluble in water. Scandium nitrate is primarily used in the production of catalysts for the petrochemical industry, as well as in the manufacture of specialty glass and ceramics. It is also used in the production of other scandium compounds and as a precursor in the preparation of scandium-based materials. Scandium nitrate is not considered to be highly toxic, but ingestion, inhalation, or skin contact should be avoided, as it can cause irritation and harm to the respiratory system.
