The particles of gadolinium chloride are white, soluble in water and alcohol, and delidelible in humid air. They can be used in the manufacture of gadolinium ferroalloy materials, intermediates of gadolinium compounds, and chemical reagents. Its chemical formula is GdCl3 or GdCl3 6H2O.
Properties:
EINECS number: 233-386-6
Appearance: Usually white crystalline granular
Density: about 4.52 g/cm³
Melting point: The melting point of anhydrous gadolinium chloride is 609°C; Gadolinium chloride hexahydrate will gradually lose crystal water when heated, and eventually become anhydrous
Solubility: Easily soluble in water and ethanol, easy deliquescence in humid air
Application:
Industrial field: it can be used in the manufacture of gadolinium ferroalloy materials, which has applications in permanent magnetic materials, magnetostrictive materials, etc. It is also an important source of gadolinium compounds intermediates for further synthesis of other gadolinium compounds.
Chemical reagents: As a commonly used chemical reagent in the laboratory, it is used for related chemical analysis, experimental research, etc.
Medical: Certain gadolinum-containing compounds can be used as contrast agents in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to help improve the clarity and accuracy of imaging.
VI HALBLEITERMATERIAL GmbH (VIMATERIAL) employs a stringent quality assurance system to ensure the reliability of our product quality. Strict quality control is implemented throughout the entire production chain, and for defective products, we strictly enforce the principle of rework and redo. Each batch is released only after passing detailed specification tests.
Every batch of our materials is independently tested, and, if necessary, we send samples to certified companies for testing. We provide these documents and analysis certificates with the shipment to certify that our products meet the required standards.
