Fluorination of Eu-doped layered yttrium hydroxides: the role of anionic composition
https://doi.org/10.17586/2220-8054-2024-15-1-104-114
Abstract
The fluorination processes of layered rare-earth hydroxides (LRHs) intercalated with various anions, including organic ones, have been compared for the first time. The fluorination process was investigated for chloride-, nitrateand 4-sulfobenzoate-intercalated Eu-doped layered yttrium hydroxides by interaction with aqueous solutions of sodium fluoride at 100–150 ○C for 2–48 hours. The final product of fluorination in all cases is the hexagonal yttrium hydroxide fluoride (YHF) phase of NayY0.95Eu0.05(OH)3+y−xFx · mH2O (x ∼ 3, y ∼ 0.2) composition. The formation rate of the YHF increases with the interlayer spacing of the Eu-doped layered yttrium hydroxide.
