Promethium (III) iodide is a chemical compound made up of the elements promethium and iodine . It has the formula PmI 3 and belongs to the iodide class of substances .

Appearance and properties

Promethium (III) iodide cannot be prepared from promethium (III) oxide  (Pm 2 O 3 ) by reaction with HI - H 2 mixtures; instead, promethium (III) oxyiodide  (PmOI) is formed. The desired product is formed by reaction of Pm 2 O 3 with molten aluminum iodide  (AlI 3 ) at 500 ° C. It is a red solid with a melting point of 695 ° C.

safety instructions

Classifications according to the CLP regulation are not available because these only include chemical hazard and play a completely subordinate role compared to the hazards based on radioactivity . The latter also only applies if the amount of substance involved is relevant.
