Ammonium Cerium Nitrate

Ammonium Cerium Nitrate (CAS 16774-21-3), also known as ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN), is a powerful oxidizing agent widely used in the electronics and semiconductor industry. It serves as the primary component in chrome etchant formulations for flat panel display (FPD) and LED manufacturing, enabling precise patterning of chromium layers. In analytical chemistry, it functions as a standard oxidant in cerimetry. The compound is also employed in organic synthesis as a single-electron oxidant for radical reactions and oxidative additions. In the electronics sector, high-purity grades are critical for consistent etching performance in photomask and display production. Supplied as an orange-red crystalline solid or as a 50% aqueous solution for direct use in etchant preparation.
