production method | production method Y 2 O 3 + 6CH 3 COOH → 2Y(CH 3 COO) 3 + 3H 2 O 10g of yttrium oxide is added to 500mL 50% acetic acid solution and heated to dissolve all of the yttrium oxide. If a small amount of unreacted oxide remains at the bottom of the vessel, filtration is required. The clear solution was placed on a 75 °c water bath to distill most of the solvent. Cooling, crystal precipitation, filtration. Yttrium acetate tetrahydrate can be recrystallized from acetic acid. |
