Lutetium Hydride (LuH2~3)-Powder CAS NO.13598-44-2

Lutetium (III) Hydride (LuH₃) is generally immediately available in most volumes. High purity, submicron and nanopowder forms may be considered. Hydride compounds are used often used as portable sources of hydrogen gas. The Lutetium metals readily react with hydrogen to form LuH₂, and, by raising the hydrogen pressure, the trivalent Lu metals also form the LuH3 phase. Both the LuH₂ and LuH₃ phases are nonstoichiometric (that is, the numbers of atoms of the elements present cannot be expressed as a ratio of small whole numbers).
