Contents

Synthesis

Reaction of thulium and nitric acid: [4]

Tm + 6 HNO3 → Tm(NO3)3 + 3 NO2 + 3 H2O

Reaction of thulium hydroxide and nitric acid:

Tm(OH)3 + 3 HNO3 → Tm(NO3)3 + 3 H2O

Physical properties

Thulium(III) nitrate forms dark-green hygroscopic crystals.

Forms crystalline hydrates of the composition Tm(NO3)3·5H2O. [5] [6]

Soluble in water and ethanol. [7]

Chemical properties

Both the compound and its crystalline hydrate decompose on moderate heating.

Hydrated thulium nitrate thermally decomposes to form TmONO3 and decomposes to thulium oxide upon further heating.

Applications

Thulium(III) nitrate hydrate is used as a reagent. Also used in optical glasses, ceramics, catalysts, electrical components, and photo-optical materials. [8]
