NEODYMIUM CHLORIDE Usage And Synthesis

Uses

Neodymium Chloride mainly used for glass, crystal and capacitors. Colours glass delicate shades ranging from pure violet through wine-red and warm gray. Light transmitted through such glass shows unusually sharp absorption bands. It is useful in protective lenses for welding goggles. It is also used in CRT displays to enhance contrast between reds and greens. It is highly valued in glass manufacturing for its attractive purple coloring to glass.

Chemical Properties

white to off-white powder

Uses

Neodymium(III) chloride is used as a precursor for the production of neodymium metal. It is used as a catalyst and accelerates polymerization of various dienes such as polybutylene, polybutadiene, and polyisoprene. It has luminescence property and is widely used as fluorescent label in organic molecules, thereby helping in easy tracking of the compound using fluorescence microscope during various physical and chemical reactions.

Flammability and Explosibility

Not classified

Safety Profile

Poison by intravenous, intraperitoneal, and subcutaneous routes. Moderately toxic by ingestion. A skin and eye irritant. When heated to decomposition it emits very toxic fumes of Cl-.
