Cerium Chloride Heptahydrate (CeCl3·7H2O) - High-Purity Water-Soluble Rare Earth Hydrate for Catalysis and Precursor Synthesis

Cerium Chloride Heptahydrate, chemically defined as Cerium(III) Chloride Heptahydrate with the molecular formula CeCl₃·7H₂O and official CAS number 18618-55-8, is a high-purity, water-soluble crystalline rare earth hydrate. As the most commonly used commercial form of cerium chloride, this hydrated rare earth salt features stable crystal structure, excellent water solubility, mild chemical activity and superior reaction compatibility. Unlike anhydrous cerium chloride, CeCl3·7H2O possesses moderate hygroscopicity, stable room-temperature storage performance and no extreme dehydration activity, making it the preferred raw material for industrial synthesis, organic catalysis, material precursor preparation and environmental protection applications, widely adopted in global fine chemical, new material and scientific research industries.

We supply high-quality Cerium Chloride Heptahydrate with multiple standard purity grades including 99%, 99.9% (3N) and customized high-purity specifications. Produced via precise rare earth purification, low-temperature directional crystallization, filtered impurity removal and sealed packaging processes, our CeCl3·7H2O products present uniform colorless to pale white crystalline particles with ultra-low heavy metal, iron and non-rare earth impurity content. The material dissolves rapidly and completely in water and polar organic solvents such as ethanol, forming clear and transparent solutions without insoluble residues. With strict batch consistency control and stable chemical properties, our products fully meet large-scale industrial production and high-standard laboratory research requirements.

Core Properties & Product Advantages

Cerium Chloride Heptahydrate has unique functional advantages that differentiate it from anhydrous cerium chloride and other rare earth salts. Firstly, it delivers excellent and stable water solubility with complete dissolution in aqueous and alcohol-based systems, enabling uniform dispersion of cerium active ions in liquid-phase reactions and ensuring consistent reaction efficiency. Secondly, its inherent hydrated crystal structure provides mild and controllable chemical activity, avoiding the excessive activity and easy deliquescence problems of anhydrous products, greatly improving operational stability in daily production and experiments.

In addition, CeCl3·7H2O features outstanding Lewis acid catalytic activity and synergistic modification performance. It serves as a water-tolerant green catalyst, compatible with water-ethanol mixed reaction systems and suitable for various mild organic synthesis reactions. The product has low impurity residue, high solution clarity and stable thermal decomposition characteristics; it gradually loses crystalline water at 100–110°C without rapid deterioration of active components. Moreover, our high-purity heptahydrate cerium chloride has long storage life, low deterioration rate and high cost performance, becoming the mainstream choice for commercial and research applications.

Main Industrial & Scientific Applications

Rare Earth Material Precursor: Cerium Chloride Heptahydrate is a fundamental precursor for manufacturing high-purity cerium-based derivatives. It can be used to synthesize cerium oxide, cerium oxalate, cerium nitrate and nano-cerium oxide materials through precipitation, calcination and crystallization processes. The uniform hydrated crystal structure ensures controllable particle morphology and high purity of finished oxide products, widely used in polishing materials and functional ceramic production.

Organic Synthesis & Precision Catalysis: As a classic mild Lewis acid catalyst, CeCl3·7H2O is widely applied in fine organic synthesis, including Luche reduction, esterification, alkylation and functional group deprotection reactions. It effectively improves reaction selectivity and product yield, inhibits side reactions, and replaces traditional high-pollution strong acid catalysts to achieve green and efficient chemical production, which is a standard reagent in pharmaceutical intermediate synthesis and fine chemical processing.

Environmental Protection & Water Treatment: With excellent rare earth ion chelating and flocculation performance, Cerium Chloride Heptahydrate is used as an efficient water purification additive and phosphorus removal agent for industrial wastewater and domestic sewage treatment. It can efficiently adsorb phosphate pollutants, heavy metal ions and organic impurities in water, inhibit algal growth, and significantly improve water quality, serving as an eco-friendly water treatment functional material.

Luminescent & Electronic Materials: It acts as a key raw material and doping additive for rare earth luminescent powders, LED fluorescent materials and scintillation crystal materials. It can optimize luminous efficiency, improve light stability and enhance the service life of luminescent devices, widely used in display lighting, optical instruments and electronic component manufacturing fields.

Laboratory Analytical Reagents: High-purity CeCl3·7H2O is a standard analytical reagent for rare earth chemical research, ion detection and experimental material preparation. Its stable solubility and accurate ion concentration provide reliable data support for academic research, material development and chemical analysis experiments.

Packaging & Storage Guidelines

Our Cerium Chloride Heptahydrate adopts standard sealed and moisture-proof packaging: 1kg vacuum aluminum foil bags for laboratory testing and sample orders; 25kg waterproof plastic drums for industrial bulk supply. Customized packaging specifications are available upon customer request. The product is hygroscopic, so it must be stored in a dry, cool, ventilated and dust-free warehouse environment. Keep containers tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, deliquescence and contamination. Avoid long-term exposure to high temperature and high-humidity environments to maintain complete crystal structure and stable chemical activity.
