What is Lanthanum(III) Chloride used for?

One application of Lanthanum Chloride is the removal of phosphate from solutions via precipitation, e.g. in swimming pools to prevent algae growth and other wastewater treatments. It is used for treatment in aquariums, water parks, residential waters as well as in aquatic habitats for the prevention of algae growth.

Lanthanum Chloride (LaCl3)has also shown use as a filter aid and an effective flocculent. Lanthanum chloride is also used in biochemical research to block the activity of divalent cation channels, mainly calcium channels. Doped with cerium, it is used as a scintillator material.

In organic synthesis, lanthanum trichloride functions as a mild Lewis acid for converting aldehydes to acetals.

The compound has been identified as a catalyst for the high pressure oxidative chlorination of methane to chloromethane with hydrochloric acid and oxygen.

Lanthanum is a rare earth metal that is very effective at preventing build up of phosphate in water. In the form of Lanthanum Chloride a small dose introduced to phosphate laden water immediately forms small flocs of LaPO4 precipitate which can then be filtered using a sand filter.

LaCl3 is especially effective in reducing very high phosphate concentrations.

Lanthanum Salt Compounds Lanthanum Hydroxide/La(OH)3 Powder 14507-19-8
Lanthanum Hydroxide is a highly water insoluble crystalline Lanthanum source, which can be obtained by adding an alkali such as ammonia to aqueous solutions of lanthanum salts such as lanthanum nitrate. This produces a gel-like precipitate that can then be dried in air. Lanthanum hydroxide does not react much with alkaline substances, however is slightly soluble in acidic solution. It is used compatibly with higher (basic) pH environments.

Lanthanum Hexaboride (LaB6, also called Lanthanum Boride and LaB) is an inorganic chemical, a boride of lanthanum. As refractory ceramic material that has a melting point of 2210 °C, Lanthanum Boride is highly insoluble in water and hydrochloric acid, and converts to the oxide when heated (calcined). Stoichiometric samples are colored intense purple-violet, while boron-rich ones (above LaB6.07) are blue. Lanthanum Hexaboride (LaB6) is known for its hardness, mechanical strength, thermionic emission, and strong plasmonic properties. Recently, a new moderate-temperature synthetic technique was developed to directly synthesize LaB6 nanoparticles.
