La₂O₃ - Industrial rare earth oxide for catalysts, glass ceramics and electronics

Lanthanum oxide (La₂O₃) is a white, hygroscopic powder from the group of rare earth oxides. As a stable oxide compound of the element lanthanum, it plays a crucial role in industry - including in catalyst development, glass ceramic production and electronic component manufacture. PROJECTOR supplies lanthanum oxide for a wide range of production requirements - with direct export processing and just-in-time logistics.

Typical areas of application for lanthanum oxide:

Lanthanum oxide is widely used in industry, particularly as a catalyst carrier in the petrochemical industry and in exhaust gas aftertreatment. Its high surface activity improves the reactivity of other metal oxides. In the glass and ceramics industry, lanthanum oxide is used as an additive to improve light refraction, hardness and thermal stability. In electronics, it is used for the production of special capacitors, among other things. As a component of electroceramic materials, it helps to specifically control dielectric properties. It also plays a role in optical applications, for example to improve glass in laser technology or lens technology.
