The Preparations of Electronic Grade- Samarium Oxid


Electronic grade-- Samarium oxide

Formula: Sm2O3
Molecular weight: 348.7182
CAS: 12060-58-1 
Density: 8.3477.24g/cm3
Melting point 2262℃

Samarium(III) oxide may be prepared by two methods:

1. thermal decomposition of samarium(III) carbonate, hydroxide, nitrate, oxalate or sulfate:
Sm2(CO3)3 → Sm2O3 + 3 CO2

2. by burning the metal in air or oxygen at a temperature above 150 °C:
4 Sm + 3 O2 → 2 Sm2O3
