The chemical magic of rare earth elements:
Due to their unique electron shell structures and Lewis acidity, rare earth elements play an irreplaceable role in the field of chemistry and chemical engineering. The full range of compounds provided by DeepCeLaTM, including rare earth oxides, chlorides, phosphates, etc., can significantly enhance the efficiency of catalytic reactions, optimize material properties, and promote the innovation of green chemical technologies. These compounds are widely applied in core fields such as petrochemical engineering, polymer synthesis, environmental protection and governance, and fine chemicals.
Rare earth compounds: The “cornerstone of efficient catalysts and functional materials” in the chemical industry – DeepCeLaTM drives the upgrading of green chemical engineering and high-end materials.
The application of DeepCeLaTM core products in the chemical industry:
Rare Earth Oxide
- Lanthanum Oxide (La₂O₃) : Petroleum cracking catalyst: Enhances the yield of light oil, reduces coke formation, and is used in fluidized catalytic cracking (FCC) units; Automobile exhaust purification: As an oxygen storage material for three-way catalysts, it efficiently converts harmful gases such as CO and NOx.
- Cerium oxide (CeO₂) : Photocatalytic material: It can degrade organic pollutants in industrial wastewater (such as phenol and dyes), with a mineralization rate of over 95%.
Rare Earth Chloride
- Polyolefin catalyst additives: Enhance the uniformity of molecular weight distribution of polyethylene/polypropylene and optimize mechanical properties.
- Pharmaceutical intermediate synthesis: Catalyze the activation reaction of C-H bonds to simplify the synthesis steps of drugs.
Rare Earth Fluoride
- Lanthanum fluoride (LaF₃) : Solid superacid catalyst: It can replace liquid sulfuric acid in esterification reactions, reducing equipment corrosion and wastewater discharge.
Rare Earth phosphate
- Cerium Phosphate (CePO₄) : Flame-retardant material: As a polymer additive, it enhances the UL94 flame-retardant grade of the material through a catalytic carbonization mechanism.
Rare Earth Nitrate
- Oxidation reaction catalyst: Used in the production of adipic acid, it replaces the traditional nitric acid process and reduces the emission of N₂O greenhouse gas.
Rare Earth Sulfate
- Wastewater phosphorus remover: Efficiently adsorbs phosphate in industrial wastewater and simultaneously removes heavy metal ions (such as arsenic and cadmium).
Rare Earth Carbonates
- Lanthanum Carbonate (La₂(CO₃)₃): PVC heat stabilizer: Replaces lead salt stabilizers to achieve non-toxic and environmentally friendly plastic processing.
Rare Earth Citrate
- Cerium Citrate (CeC₆H₅O₇) : Homogeneous catalytic system: used in asymmetric synthesis reactions to enhance the optical purity of chiral drugs.
Future Trend: Rare Earths Empower High-end Chemical Materials
- Construction of MOF materials: Utilizing the high coordination number of rare earth ions, porous adsorption materials are designed for CO₂ capture;
- Bio-based chemical synthesis: Lanthanide catalysts catalyze the conversion of cellulose to ethylene glycol, replacing the petroleum-based route;
- Electronic chemicals: Ultra-high purity gadolinium oxide (Gd₂O₃) is used in the formulation of semiconductor etching solutions.
