Abstract

A method of synthesis crystalline yttrium citrate dihydrate was proposed as a result of the transformation of the freshly precipitated basic yttrium carbonate phase in a citric acid solution. The synthesis time was determined on the basis of composition analysis, structure and thermogravimetric studies of samples taken during the synthesis. The research methods used have shown that in the initial stage of the synthesis, the processes of citric acid sorption on basic yttrium carbonate and transformation of amorphous yttrium carbonate hydroxide into crystalline yttrium hydroxide occurs. It is only after 72 h of synthesis that the crystalline yttrium citrate dihydrate is formed.•Synthesis crystalline yttrium citrate dehydrate.•The synthesis time 72 h.•Synthesis components: the freshly precipitated basic yttrium carbonate phase in a citric acid solution.
