Description of product

One of the main applications of cerium fluoride lies in the field of optics. Due to its high refractive index and low dispersion, it is commonly used as a component in optical coatings and lenses. Cerium fluoride crystals, when exposed to ionizing radiation, emit scintillation light that can be detected and measured， so it is widely used in scintillation detectors. Cerium fluoride can be used as a phosphor for solid-state lighting technology. Cerium fluoride also has catalytic properties and is used as a catalyst in petroleum refining, automobile exhaust treatment, chemical synthesis, etc. Cerium fluoride is also an irreplaceable additive for the smelting of cerium metal.

WONAIXI company (WNX) is a professional manufacturer of rare earth salts. With more than 10 years of R&D and cerium fluoride production experience, our cerium fluoride products are chosen by many customers and sold to Japan, Korea, American and European countries. WNX has the annual production capacity of 1500 tons of cerium fluoride and support OEM
