Production Method

1. Dissolve an appropriate amount of samarium oxide in 50% hydrochloric acid solution using a steam bath for heating.
2. Filter the solution if any residual solids remain.
3. Heat the clarified solution in a 75°C water bath to evaporate most solvent.
4. Cool to allow crystallization.
5. Collect crystals via filtration and dry them in a vacuum desiccator containing granular sodium hydroxide and magnesium perchlorate.
