Rare earth nitrates are a class of compounds composed of rare earth elements and nitrate ions (NO₃^-). Their properties: Most rare earth nitrates are colorless crystals that are soluble in water; they have high thermal and chemical stability; rare earth nitrates are weakly acidic in solution; different rare earth ions will affect the color and fluorescence properties of rare earth nitrates. Their uses: Rare earth nitrates are widely used in the preparation of luminescent materials and fluorescent markers, such as phosphors, LEDs, liquid crystal displays, etc.; they are also used in the production of glass, ceramics and pigments to change the color and properties of materials; rare earth nitrates are also important raw materials for some catalysts and chemical reagents.

There are two types of rare earth nitrates: hydrates and anhydrous salts. Their preparation methods are different. Rare earth oxides are heated and dissolved in nitric acid solution. After the reaction is completed, the solution is filtered and the filtrate is cooled, concentrated, and crystallized to obtain water and rare earth nitrates. Anhydrous rare earth nitrates cannot be obtained simply by heating and dehydrating hydrates directly, because this will generate rare earth basic salts.

Their safety information: When handling rare earth nitrates, wear appropriate protective gloves, glasses and masks to prevent direct contact or inhalation; Avoid contact of rare earth nitrates with skin, eyes or mouth; When storing, rare earth nitrates should be placed in a dry, sealed and light-proof place, away from combustibles and flammables; When discarding rare earth nitrates, they should be handled and disposed of in accordance with local regulations.
