99.99% Purity Praseodymium Chloride Hydrate PrCl3•6H2O Green Crystals

Praseodymium Chloride Hydrate (PrCl₃·6H₂O): Chemical Additive, Reaction Catalyst, Growth Promoter

Praseodymium chloride is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula PrCl₃•6H₂O, appearing as green crystals. It is soluble in water, with approximately 25g of the hydrate dissolving in 100mL of water at 18°C. It is also soluble in benzene. When heated to 760°C, it decomposes to form praseodymium oxide.

Applications

1. Used as an additive in the chemical industry.
2. Serves as a catalyst for various reactions.
3. Functions as a growth promoter for crops.

Preparation Method for Praseodymium Chloride Hydrate
Dissolve an appropriate amount of praseodymium oxide in a 50% hydrochloric acid solution and heat using a steam bath. Typically, the praseodymium oxide will dissolve completely. If any oxide residue remains at the bottom of the container, filter the solution. Transfer the clear solution to a 75°C water bath to evaporate most of the solvent. Allow the solution to cool, during which crystals will form. Collect the crystals by filtration and place them in a vacuum desiccator containing granular sodium hydroxide and magnesium perchlorate. Dry under vacuum to obtain hydrated praseodymium chloride.
