NA1435 Cerium Ammonium Nitrate (NH4)2Ce(NO3)6 Powder (CAS No. 16774-21-3)

Cerium Ammonium Nitrate Description

Cerium (IV) ammonium nitrate ((NH4)2Ce(NO3)6) is a one-electron oxidizing agent that is used for oxidative addition reactions of electrophilic radicals to alkenes, enabling intermolecular and intramolecular carbon-carbon and carbon-heteroatom bond formation.

Cerium Ammonium Nitrate Specification

Cerium Ammonium Nitrate    Ce(NH₄)₂(NO₃)₆

Cerium Ammonium Nitrate Application

Cerium Ammonium Nitrate (CAN), is an important material for making Chrome etchant which is a very important microelectronic circuit corroding material for LCD; CAN is also applied in specialty glass and catalysts. In steels, Cerium detoxifies and can help reduce Sulfides and Oxides, and it is a precipitation-hardening agent in stainless steel. Cerium alloys are used in permanent magnets, and in Tungsten electrodes for gas tungsten arc welding. It is also used in carbon-arc lighting, especially in the motion picture industry.
