YTTERBIUM OXIDE(Cas 1314-37-0) Usage

Preparation

Ytterbium oxide is produced as an intermediate in recovering ytterbium from minerals (See Ytterbium). After opening the ore by digestion with concentrated sulfuric acid or caustic soda solution at high temperatures, rare earths are separated by ion exchange, solvent extraction, or fractional precipitation. Ytterbium fraction is treated with oxalic acid or sodium oxalate to precipitate ytterbium oxalate, which is ignited to yield ytterbium oxide.

Notclassified

Physical properties

Colorless cubic crystals when pure; tinted brown or yellowish white in presence of thulia; density 9.17 g/cm3; insoluble in water; soluble in hot dilute acids.
