Europium (III) borate (Eu [BO 3 ]) is a salt of europium and the borate - anion . In addition to the europium (III) borate, there is also the europium (II) borate (Eu 3 [BO 3 ] 2 ).
Extraction and presentation
Europium (III) borate, via the reaction of boric acid with Europiumsesquioxid at 600-700 ° C are obtained.
properties
Europium (III) borate crystallizes isotypically to vaterite hexagonal in the space group P 6 3 / mmc (space group no.194 ) with a = 384.2 pm and c = 893.7 pm and two formula units per unit cell . There also exists a metastable phase , the γ -Eu [BO 3 ], which at 10 kbar can be produced and 1000 ° C. The metastable phase crystallizes triclinically with a = 621.9 (1), b = 646.8 (1), c = 646.6 (1), α = 93.10 °, β = 107.92 ° and γ = 107 , 79 ° with four formula units per unit cell. Europium (III) borate starts at 1540 ± 20 ° C melt . Eu [BO 3 ] shows a Van Vleck paramagnetism .
