Description

Gadolinium Trisodium Bis(Phosphate) CAS NO 55859-86-4 is a specialized inorganic salt of gadolinium, a rare earth element, complexed with phosphate. This compound is valued for its unique paramagnetic properties and its role as a precursor in advanced material synthesis. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers and research institutions in the fields of specialty glass, phosphors, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) contrast agent research. Our supply ensures high purity and batch-to-batch consistency for critical industrial and research applications.

Application

• Phosphor and Luminescent Material Production: A key dopant or precursor in the manufacture of specialized phosphors for lighting, displays, and X-ray intensifying screens.
• Specialty Glass and Ceramics: Used to impart specific optical or thermal properties to glasses and ceramic materials.
• MRI Contrast Agent Research: Serves as a chemical intermediate or model compound in the research and development of gadolinium-based contrast agents.
• Catalysis: Acts as a catalyst or catalyst component in select organic synthesis and polymerization reactions.
• Analytical Chemistry: Employed as a standard or reagent in spectroscopic analysis and trace metal detection.
• Nuclear Applications: Investigated for use in neutron absorption and shielding materials due to gadolinium's high neutron capture cross-section.

Quality Control

Every batch of Gadolinium Trisodium Bis(Phosphate) is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. We provide material that meets high-purity standards suitable for research and industrial applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles are available for all shipments. Specifications can be aligned with customer requirements for specific applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
