Lanthanum(III) oxide, also known as lanthana, chemical formula La 2 O 3, is an inorganic compound containing the rare earth element lanthanum and oxygen. It is used in some ferroelectric materials, as a component of optical materials, and is a feedstock for certain catalysts, among other uses.
Lanthanum oxide is also used as a grain-growth additive during the liquid-phase sintering of silicon nitride and zirconium diboride. [ 65 ] Small amounts of lanthanum added to steel improves its malleability , resistance to impact, and ductility , whereas addition of lanthanum to molybdenum decreases its hardness and sensitivity to temperature ...
Lanthanum barium copper oxide, or LBCO, is an inorganic compound with the formula CuBa 0.15 La 1.85 O 4. It is a black solid produced by heating an intimate mixture of barium oxide, copper(II) oxide, and lanthanum oxide in the presence of oxygen. The material was discovered in 1986 and was the first high temperature superconductor. [1]
Lanthanum(III) nitrate is any inorganic compound with the chemical formula La(NO 3) 3 ·xH 2 O. It is used in the extraction and purification of lanthanum from its ores. [5] The compound decomposes at 499°C to lanthanum oxide, nitric oxide and oxygen. [3]
LSAT is the most common name for the inorganic compound lanthanum aluminate - strontium aluminium tantalate, which has the chemical formula (LaAlO 3) 0.3 (Sr 2 TaAlO 6) 0.7 or its less common alternative: (La 0.18 Sr 0.82)(Al 0.59 Ta 0.41)O 3. LSAT is a hard, optically transparent oxide of the elements lanthanum, aluminium, strontium and tantalum.
Cerium(III) oxide, also known as cerium oxide, cerium trioxide, cerium sesquioxide, cerous oxide or dicerium trioxide, is an oxide of the rare-earth metal cerium. It has chemical formula Ce 2 O 3 and is gold-yellow in color. According to X-ray crystallography, the Ce(III) ions are seven-coordinate, a motif typical for other trivalent lanthanide ...
Lanthanum oxalate is an inorganic compound, a salt of lanthanum metal and oxalic acid with the chemical formula La 2 (C 2 O 4) 3. [1] [2] Synthesis.
Lutetium(III) oxide. Lutetium(III) oxide is a white solid, a cubic compound of lutetium which sometimes used in the preparation of specialty glasses. It is also called lutecia. It is a lanthanide oxide, also known as a rare earth. [3] [4] [5] Lutetium(III) oxide is an important raw material for laser crystals. [6]
