Cerium Oxide (CeO₂) is the most economically significant of all Rare Earth Oxides. Extremely stable, hard, off-white to pale yellow powder characteristic of RRe compound. Cerium is unique among the REEs for its ability to easily switch between the +3 (Ce₂O₃) & +4 (CeO₂) oxidation states. This redox capacity is the basis for its major applications in catalysis and polishing. We are leading & trusted Cerium Oxide suppliers in the United States and worldwide, offering high-purity Cerium Oxide that meets quality and safety standards, with reliable lead times and global supply capability.
