Light rare earth carbonate
1 Scope
This Standard specifies technical requirements, test methods, inspection rules,
marks, packaging, transport, storage and quality certificates for light rare earth
carbonate.
This Standard is applicable to light rare earth carbonate prepared by chemical
method with bastnaesite-monazite mixed concentrate as raw material. It is
mainly used to separate single rare earths, prepare rare earth polishing
materials, catalytic materials, and mixed rare earth metals.
2 Normative references

composition. The representation methods for product designation shall meet
the requirements of GB/T 17803.
3.2 Chemical composition
The chemical composition of the product shall meet the requirements of Table
4 Test methods
4.1 Chemical composition
4.1.1 The analysis methods for the total content of rare earths, the proportion
of rare earths (La2O3, CeO2, Pr6O11, Nd2O3, Eu2O3), other rare earth impurities,
non-rare earth impurities (Fe2O3, SO42-, Cl-, CaO, MgO, ZnO, MnO2, Na2O, PbO)
and acid-insoluble substances are carried out according to the provisions of the
corresponding part of GB/T 16484.
4.1.2 The analysis methods for fluorine content (F-) and alumina (Al2O3) are
carried out in accordance with the provisions of the corresponding part of GB/T
12690.
4.1.3 The analysis method of radioactivity is carried out according to the
supplier’s current method.
4.2 Numerical rounding
Numerical rounding is carried out in accordance with the provisions of GB/T
8170.
4.3 Appearance quality

5 Inspection rules
5.1 Inspection and acceptance
5.1.1 The product is inspected by the supplier’s technical supervision
department to ensure that the quality of the product meets the requirements of
this standard and fill in the quality certificate.
5.1.2 The purchaser shall inspect the products received. If the inspection result
does not conform to the provisions of this Standard, it shall be submitted to the
supplier within 2 months from the date of receipt of the product. It shall be
solved by supplier and purchaser via negotiation. If arbitration is required, it can
be carried out by an organization recognized by both parties. Jointly conduct
sampling at purchaser’s.
