Soluble in water and ethanol.[7]

Chemical properties

Both the compound and its crystalline hydrate decompose on moderate heating.

Hydrated thulium nitrate thermally decomposes to form TmONO
3
and decomposes to thulium oxide upon further heating.

Applications

Thulium(III) nitrate hydrate is used as a reagent. Also used in optical glasses, ceramics, catalysts, electrical components, and photo-optical materials.[8]
