Erbium Oxide
Erbium(III) Oxide, is synthesized from the lanthanide metal erbium. Erbium oxide is a light pink powder in appearance. It is insoluble in water, but soluble in mineral acids. Er2O3 is hygroscopic and will readily absorb moisture and CO2 from the atmosphere. It is a highly insoluble thermally stable Erbium source suitable for glass, optical, and ceramic applications. Erbium Oxide can be also used as a flammable neutron poison for nuclear fuel.

Cerium Hydroxide
Cerium(IV) Hydroxide, also known as ceric hydroxide, is a highly water insoluble crystalline Cerium source for uses compatible with higher (basic) pH environments. It is an inorganic compound with the chemical formula Ce(OH)4. It is a yellowish powder that is insoluble in water but soluble in concentrated acids.
-
Cerium(III) Oxalate Hydrate
Cerium(III) Oxalate (Cerous Oxalate) is the inorganic cerium salt of oxalic acid, which is highly insoluble in water and converts to the oxide when heated (calcined). It is a white crystalline solid with the chemical formula of Ce2(C2O4)3. It could be obtained by the reaction of oxalic acid with cerium(III) chloride.

Europium(III) Oxide
Europium(III) Oxide (Eu2O3) is a chemical compound of europium and oxygen. Europium oxide has also other names as Europia, Europium trioxide. Europium oxide has a pinkish white color. Europium oxide has two different structures: cubic and monoclinic. The cubic structured europium oxide is almost same as magnesium oxide structure. Europium oxide has negligible solubility in water, but readily dissolves in mineral acids. Europium oxide is thermally stable material that has melting point at 2350 oC. Europium oxide’s multi-efficient properties like magnetic, optical and luminescence properties make this material very important. Europium oxide has an ability to absorb moisture and carbon dioxide in atmosphere.

Gadolinium(III) Oxide (archaically gadolinia) is an inorganic compound with the formula Gd2 O3, which is the most available form of the pure gadolinium and the oxide form of one of the rare earth metal gadolinium. Gadolinium oxide is also known as gadolinium sesquioxide, gadolinium trioxide and Gadolinia. The color of the gadolinium oxide is white. Gadolinium oxide is odorless, not soluble in water, but soluble in acids.
-
Holmium Oxide
Holmium(III) oxide, or holmium oxide is a highly insoluble thermally stable Holmium source. It is a chemical compound of a rare-earth element holmium and oxygen with the formula Ho2O3. Holmium oxide occurs in small quantities in the minerals monazite, gadolinite, and in other rare-earth minerals. Holmium metal easily oxidizes in air; therefore presence of holmium in nature is synonymous with that of holmium oxide. It is suitable for glass, optic and ceramic applications.
