Lutetium Chloride
Lutetium chloride (LuCl3), also known as lutetium trichloride, is one of the important lutetium compounds. Compounds of lutetium always contain the element in the oxidation state +3. Aqueous solutions of most lutetium salts are colorless and form white crystalline solids upon drying, except the iodide. Lutetium salts, such as nitrate, sulfate and acetate are water soluble while the oxide, hydroxide, fluoride, carbonate, phosphate and oxalate are insoluble in water.

Applications of Lutetium chloride (LuCl3)
-Lutetium chloride (LuCl3) is used as catalyst in petroleum cracking in refineries.
-Lutetium chloride (LuCl3) is used to make laser crystal.
-Some lutetium compounds also have specific uses.E.g.: lutetium tantalate (LuTaO4) is the densest known stable white material (density 9.81 g/cm3) and therefore is widely used in X-ray phosphors.
-Lutetium chloride (LuCl3) is used in in alkylation, hydrogenation, and polymerization applications.
-Lutetium chloride (LuCl3) used in ceramics, glass, phosphors, and lasers.
