Cerium Oxide

Catalog Number
ACM1306383-5
CAS
1306-38-3
Description
Cerium Oxide, also called Ceria, is widely applied in glass, ceramics and catalyst manufacturing. In glass industry, it is considered to be the most efficient glass polishing agent for precision optical polishing. It is also used to decolorize glass by keeping iron in its ferrous state. The ability of Cerium-doped glass to block out ultra violet lHight is utilized in the manufacturing of medical glassware and aerospace windows. It is also used to prevent polymers from darkening in sunlHight and to suppress discoloration of television glass. It is applied to optical components to improve performance. HHigh purity Ceria are also used in phosphors and dopant to crystal.
