Product Description:

Indium(III) nitrate hydrate is an inorganic salt with the formula In(NO3)3·xH2O. It is a white to off-white crystalline powder that is highly soluble in water and polar organic solvents. As a source of indium ions, it is a crucial precursor in materials science. Its primary application is in the synthesis of indium-based functional materials. It serves as a key precursor for the preparation of indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films, which are essential transparent conducting oxides used in displays, touchscreens, and solar cells. It is also widely used in sol-gel processes and chemical vapor deposition to fabricate other indium oxide-based semiconductors, catalysts, and gas sensors. The compound is hygroscopic and should be stored in a cool, dry place. It decomposes upon heating, releasing nitrogen oxides, and requires careful handling in well-ventilated areas.
