· HoCl3

Holmium trichloride (HoCl₃) is an ionic ceramic compound and rare-earth halide salt containing holmium, a lanthanide element. It is primarily encountered in research and specialized industrial contexts rather than widespread engineering applications, serving as a precursor for synthesizing holmium-containing materials and as a dopant source in optical and luminescent ceramics. The material is notable within the rare-earth chemistry family for its potential in laser-active media, phosphors, and high-temperature applications where rare-earth elements provide unique optical or magnetic functionality.

Regulatory Screening

Environmental

RoHS, REACH, and Prop 65 statuses are validated against official substance lists (ECHA SVHC Candidate List, OEHHA Prop 65, RoHS Annex II). Other regulations are estimated from composition and material classification. All screening is a starting point for due diligence — always verify with your supplier before making compliance decisions.
