Abstract;The dehydration processes of lanthanide hexacyanoferrates(III) n-hydrates, Ln[Fe(CN)6] nH2O (Ln=La-Lu; n=4,5) were followed by means of the controlled rate thermal analysis(CRTA), the Raman spectral and powder X-ray diffractometer. It was found that the dehydration of the pentahydrates took place through four stages. The first stages corresponded to the dehydration of 1 mole of the coordinated water molecules, the second stage to the dehydration of 2 mole of the lattice water molecules, and the third and forth stages to the dehydration of 1 mole of the coordinated water molecules, respectively. The dehydration of the tetrahydrates took place through three stages. The first, second and third stages of the tetrahydrates were similar to the second, third and forth stages of the pentahydrates.
