| Application: | Lanthanum (III) acetate hydrate can beused as: • An additive to improve the corrosion resistance of carbon steel via sol gelprocess. its presence helps in forming a protective layer that mitigates corrosion processes, particularly in harsh environments. It is an alternativefor Cr (VI) due to its excellent self-healing properties. • A precursor in the synthesis of photoluminescentLaCO₃OH superstructures via solvent/catalyst-free one-step synthesis. LaCO₃OHsuperstructures further find application in light-emitting devices. • A precursor in the sol-gel synthesis of magnesium and lanthanum-doped titaniumdioxide (Mg-La/TiO₂) photoelectrodes, which significantly enhances thephotocatalytic performance of TiO₂ for use in dye-sensitized solar cells(DSSCs). |
| Features and Benefits: | Lanthanum acetate exhibits: • High purity: Enhances performance and reproducibility in applications, reduces contamination risks, and leads to higher-quality end products. • Thermal Stability: Its ability to withstand elevated temperatures makes it suitable for use in high-temperature processes, contributing to the longevity and durability of the final product and enhancing overall performance and reliability. |
