      • Thulium(III) nitrate is an inorganic compound, a salt of thulium and nitric acid with the chemical formula Tm(NO3)3. The compound forms dark-green crystals, readily soluble in water, also forms crystalline hydrates.


      Synthesis


      Reaction of thulium and nitric acid:

      Tm + 6 HNO3 → Tm(NO3)3 + 3 NO2 + 3 H2O
      Reaction of thulium hydroxide and nitric acid:

      Tm(OH)3 + 3 HNO3 → Tm(NO3)3 + 3 H2O


      Physical properties


      Thulium(III) nitrate forms dark-green hygroscopic crystals.
      Forms crystalline hydrates of the composition Tm(NO3)3·5H2O.
      Soluble in water and ethanol.


      Chemical properties


      Both the compound and its crystalline hydrate decompose on moderate heating.
      Hydrated thulium nitrate thermally decomposes to form TmONO3 and decomposes to thulium oxide upon further heating.


      Applications


      Thulium(III) nitrate hydrate is used as a reagent. Also used in optical glasses, ceramics, catalysts, electrical components, and photo-optical materials.
