Description
Cerium(III) nitrate hexahydrate is a rare-earth nitrate salt provided at min. 99,5 % purity in p.a. quality for analytical and materials-oriented laboratory use. The compound corresponds to the empirical formula Ce(NO₃)₃ · 6 H₂O, with a molar mass of 434,23 g/mol, CAS number 10294-41-4 and EG number 233-297-2. It serves as a convenient soluble cerium(III) source for catalyst research, ceramic and glass formulations, redox studies and the preparation of other cerium compounds. The reagent is Sourced from manufacturer Carl ROTH, the p.a. grade supports work where consistent cerium content and documented identity are important. Laboratories engaged in inorganic synthesis, materials characterisation and analytical method development benefit from the clearly stated purity, formula and molar mass data, together with a pack size suited to both teaching and research environments.

Questions about Cerium(III) nitrate hexahydrate, min. 99,5 %, p.a., 100 g, plastic
What is this article?
Cerium(III) nitrate hexahydrate, min. 99,5 %, p.a., 100 g, plastic is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Metals, elements & oxides, inside Inorganic chemicals, in Lab chemicals.
Metals, elements and oxides are the element itself or its oxide, sold as powder, shot, foil or wire. Purity and particle size are both the specification. A 99 percent powder and a 99.999 percent shot of the same element are different articles. Many are reactive to air or to water.
An inorganic chemical is a salt, an acid or base in solid form, a metal, an oxide, or an element. The waters of hydration are part of the formula: a hydrate and an anhydrous salt are different masses for the same ion. Trace metals matter when the salt will be used in analysis. Nanomaterials add particle size to the specification. Look the substance up on PubChem. Hazard classes are on ECHA, under the CLP Regulation and REACH. Transport of the dangerous ones is explained by the UNECE.
Which category should I open next?
The category is Inorganic chemicals. The sub-category is Metals, elements & oxides. The catalogue is Lab chemicals.
Shelves beside this one are Inorganic salts and Nanomaterials & quantum dots.
What should I check before I order?
The technical information on this page is the manufacturer's sheet. Read that, not a rewritten specification.
When this page shows a safety data sheet, use that manufacturer file. Hazard text does not belong in the sales description. For a pack size, a grade or a certificate that is not on the page, send a quote request or contact the team.
