Cerium(III) acetate is a rare-earth metal salt often used as a soluble precursor for cerium oxide and as a catalyst in various chemical processes. The most common commercial forms are the anhydrous form (CAS: 537-00-8) and the hydrate forms, often the sesquihydrate (CAS: 206996-60-3 or 17829-82-2). Our Cerium Acetate is a highly water-soluble, white crystalline powder, ideal for liquid-phase methods like sol-gel synthesis and spray pyrolysis. Key applications for industrial clients include Catalytic Converter Manufacturing: A foundational ingredient for producing high-efficiency ceria nanoparticles & Electronics & Coatings: Used in the thin film fabrication and functional coating sectors due to its eco-friendly decomposition properties upon heating. We are a leading & trusted Cerium acetate supplier worldwide, offering various other RRes that meet quality and safety standards, with reliable lead times and global supply capability.

Cerium Acetate is preferred as a precursor for CeO2 synthesis in methods like sol-gel because it is water-soluble and is often considered more eco-friendly than the nitrate, which releases toxic nitrogen oxides upon thermal decomposition.
Upon heating, it easily decomposes into high-purity CeO2 (ceria), which is a crucial component in automotive catalysts that acts as an oxygen storage material, promoting the oxidation of carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrocarbons.
