Cerium chloride

Cerium chloride serves as a critical precursor in the production of cerium metal and cerium-based catalysts, and is used in the synthesis of other rare earth compounds.

Used as a raw material for the fabrication of high-purity sputtering targets utilized in the deposition of cerium-doped thin films for optical and electronic applications.

Utilized as a source material in vacuum evaporation processes to create thin layers for protective coatings or as a dopant in specialized glass and crystal growth.
