Application

1. Petrochemical catalysis: this is its most core application. As an additive for petroleum cracking catalysts, it can significantly enhance the activity of zeolite molecular sieves, increase gasoline yield and reduce the amount of coke produced. Meanwhile, taking advantage of the valence variation property of cerium, it is also an important component of the three-way catalytic converter for vehicle exhaust, helping to reduce the emission of harmful gases.

2. Rare earth materials: It is the basic raw material for the preparation of single rare earth oxides (such as lanthanum oxide, cerium oxide), mixed rare earth metals, and various rare earth salts (such as lanthanum nitrate, cerium acetate). In addition, it is also used in the production of rare earth stearate as a plastic stabilizer and lubricant.

3. Metallurgy and water treatment: In the metallurgical industry, it can be used as an additive to improve the performance of alloys; In the field of water treatment, it can be used to adsorb or precipitate and remove heavy metal ions from water.

4. Emerging technology field: In the field of optical materials, its derivatives are used to manufacture ultraviolet cut-off filters and phosphors; In the field of new energy, it is regarded as a key precursor for solid oxide fuel cell electrolytes and lithium-sulfur battery additives.
