Neodymium III Chloride is an excellent water soluble crystalline neodymium source for uses compatible with chlorides. Hydrate or anhydrous forms may be purchased. Chloride compounds can conduct electricity when fused or dissolved in water. Chloride materials can be decomposed by electrolysis to chlorine gas and the metal. They are formed through various chlorination processes whereby at least one chlorine anion (Cl-) is covalently bonded to the relevant metal or cation.
Neodymium III Chloride: Ultra High Purity and proprietary formulations can be prepared. The chloride ion controls fluid equilibrium and pH levels in metabolic systems. They can form either inorganic or organic compounds. Primary applications include lasers, glass coloring and tinting, and dielectrics. NdCl is generally immediately available in most volumes.
Neodymium III Chloride: Ultra high purity compositions improve both optical quality and usefulness as scientific standards. Nanoscale elemental powders and suspensions, as alternative high surface area forms, may be considered.
Neodymium III Chloride is a dopant not only of traditional silica-based optical fibers, but of plastic fibers as well. It is also used in as an additive into infrared organic light Emitting diodes. Besides, neodymium doped organic films can not only act as LEDs, but also as color filters improving the LED emission spectrum.
Neodymium III Chloride is also used to modify titanium dioxide. The latter is one of the most popular inorganic photocatalyst for decomposition of phenol, various dyes and other waste water contaminants. The catalytic action of titanium oxide has to be activated by UV light, i.e. artificial illumination. However, modifying titanium oxide with neodymium(III) chloride allows catalysis under visible illumination, such as sun light. The modified catalyst is prepared by chemical coprecipitation–peptization method by ammonium hydroxidefrom mixture of TiCl4 and NdCl3 in aqueous solution).This process is used commercially on large scale on 1000 liter reactor for using in photocatalytic self-cleaning paints.
