CAS 20211-76-1: Lanthanum chloride (LaCl3), hydrate

Lanthanum(III) chloride is useful as precursor for synthesis of aqueous sol-gel lanthanum phosphate nano rods,as a filter aid,an effective flocculent and precipitation phosphate. It is also used as a catalyst for the high pressure oxidative chlorination of methane to chloromethane and organic synthesis it acts as Lewis acid catalyst. It is used as a scintillator material and in Gamma Detectors. This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio.

Lanthanum(III) chloride hydrate

Lanthanum chloride hydrate is a synthetic product that has shown to be effective on the uptake of lanthanum by Caco-2 cells. This product was tested for its ability to reduce the symptoms of coeliac disease, which is an autoimmune disorder that affects one's ability to digest gluten. The researchers found that lanthanum chloride hydrate could improve the intestinal absorption of nutrients and reduce the production of organic acids. Lanthanum chloride hydrate also inhibited the activity of matrix metalloproteinases, which are enzymes that break down collagen in connective tissue.
