Application
Erbium chloride hexahydrate, an important colourant in glass manufacturing and porcelain enamel glazes,
And also as main raw material for producing high purity Erbium Oxide. High purity Erbium Nitrate is applied as dopant in making optical fibre and amplifier.
It is particularly useful as an amplifier for fiber optic data transfer.
Storage
Store in ventilated and cool warehouse.
Stability
It is soluble in water and acid, and slightly soluble in ethanol.
Anhydrous salt can be obtained by heating in a stream of hydrogen chloride.
The latter are light red or light purple flake crystals, slightly hygroscopic.
It is less soluble in water than its hexahydrate salt.
When the aqueous solution is heated, it gradually becomes opaque.
The hydrate is heated and dehydrated in the air to become a mixture of erbium chloride and erbium oxychloride.
